Valvoline 881164 5W-30 Full Synthetic Motor Oil 5 Quart

Product Description

The VALVOLINE OIL COMPANY 881164 is a full synthetic 5W-30 motor oil formulated to deliver robust engine protection in gasoline-powered vehicles. It targets the three primary causes of engine stress: heat, deposits, and wear. The formula meets GM dexos1 Gen2 and API SN PLUS specifications, making it a fit for gasoline direct injected (GDI) engines where low speed pre-ignition (LSPI) is a known concern. Each container holds 5 quarts and is sold in a package of three units. Licensed technicians and shop professionals rely on this oil for routine drain-and-fill services and preventive maintenance programs.

This motor oil is suited for use in a wide range of passenger car and light truck gasoline engines requiring a 5W-30 viscosity grade. It is particularly appropriate for modern GDI engine platforms where the API SN PLUS rating provides added protection against LSPI events. Fleet shops, quick-lube operations, and independent automotive service facilities commonly stock this product in multi-unit packaging to support high-volume oil change workflows.

Compatibility

Designed for gasoline-powered passenger car and light truck engines specifying a 5W-30 full synthetic motor oil that meets GM dexos1 Gen2 or API SN PLUS standards. Always verify the vehicle manufacturer oil specification before filling.

Installation Notes

Oil changes should be performed by a qualified technician following the vehicle manufacturer service interval. Allow the engine to cool sufficiently before draining to avoid contact with hot oil. Confirm the correct oil filter is installed and torqued to the manufacturer specification before adding oil. Dispose of used motor oil in accordance with local environmental regulations.
