Valvoline VV955 Full Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-30 1 Qt

Product Description

The Valvoline VV955 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, deposit buildup, and mechanical wear. The oil meets GM dexos1 Gen2 and API SN PLUS specifications, making it suitable for modern gasoline direct injected (GDI) engines where low speed pre-ignition (LSPI) is a known concern. Sold in a 1-quart container, it is used in routine oil changes and top-off service by automotive technicians and qualified DIYers.

The VV955 is applied in passenger cars and light-duty trucks requiring a 5W-30 full synthetic oil. Its API SN PLUS rating is specifically designed to address LSPI events in turbocharged GDI engines, which have become common in late-model domestic and import vehicles. The GM dexos1 Gen2 approval makes it a direct fit for General Motors vehicles specifying that certification. It is available in case quantities of 6 quarts for shop use.

Key Features

• Full synthetic formulation provides enhanced thermal stability and wear resistance
• Meets GM dexos1 Gen2 specification for qualifying General Motors applications
• API SN PLUS rated to help prevent low speed pre-ignition in turbocharged GDI engines
• 5W-30 viscosity grade suits a wide range of operating temperatures
• Fights heat, deposits, and friction wear across the oil change interval

Compatibility

Approved for use in gasoline engines requiring a 5W-30 full synthetic motor oil meeting API SN PLUS or GM dexos1 Gen2 specifications. Consult the vehicle owner manual to confirm the correct viscosity grade and specification before servicing.

Installation Notes

Oil changes should be performed by a qualified technician following the vehicle manufacturer service interval. Always shut off the engine and allow it to cool before draining oil to prevent burns. Confirm the correct oil filter is installed and torqued to the vehicle manufacturer specification before adding oil. Dispose of used motor oil in accordance with local environmental regulations.
