LIQUI MOLY 2332 Leichtlauf High Tech 5W-40 Full Synthetic Engine Oil 5 Liter

Vehicle Fitment

This is a universal product. It is not application-specific to a single vehicle make, model, or year. It is suitable for all gasoline and diesel passenger car engines that do NOT use a diesel particulate filter (DPF) or gasoline particulate filter (GPF), and where the engine specifications fall within the approvals and recommendations listed below. Always verify your vehicle's required oil specification in the owner's manual or on the underhood label before use.

Fitment Notes

• For use in gasoline (petrol) and diesel engines WITHOUT diesel particulate filters (DPF) or gasoline particulate filters (GPF). Do not use in engines that require a DPF-compatible or low-SAPS oil - consult your owner's manual if unsure.
• Suitable for all modern gasoline and diesel engines with multi-valve technology, turbochargers, and with or without charge air cooling.
• Especially recommended for engines subject to extended oil change intervals and heavy-duty operating conditions.
• Safe for use with catalytic converters and turbochargers.
• Extended oil change intervals of up to 40,000 km (approximately 24,000 miles) are possible when permitted by the specific vehicle manufacturer's service schedule.
• Net volume: 5 liters (5.28 US quarts). Verify your engine's oil capacity before purchasing to ensure sufficient quantity for a complete oil change with filter.

Features

• Fully synthetic "Leichtlauf" (low-friction) formulation - engineered using synthesis technology base oils and the latest additive package to minimize internal engine friction, reduce oil consumption, and support measurable fuel economy gains versus conventional and semi-synthetic engine oils.
• Broad OEM approval portfolio - holds active approvals from BMW (Longlife-01), Mercedes-Benz (229.5), Porsche (A40), Volkswagen/Audi (VW 502 00 and VW 505 00), Renault (RN 0700 / RN 0710), and Peugeot Citroen PSA (B71 2296), making it directly OEM-suitable for a wide range of European vehicles requiring these specifications.
• ACEA A3/B4 classification - the highest ACEA category for passenger car engine oils, confirming suitability for high-performance gasoline engines (A3) and diesel engines without DPF (B4), including high-output turbocharged applications.
• API SP rated - the current top-tier API passenger car motor oil standard, ensuring compatibility with the latest gasoline engine hardware including timing chain systems, pistons, and emissions equipment.
• Fast cold-start lubrication - the 5W winter grade provides rapid oil flow from cold start even in temperatures as low as -30°C (-22°F), protecting engine surfaces during the critical warm-up phase when most engine wear occurs.
• Outstanding high-temperature stability - kinematic viscosity of 14.7 mm²/s at 100°C with a Viscosity Index of 171, maintaining stable oil film thickness across the full operating temperature range from cold start to sustained high-load operation.
• High HTHS viscosity (>3.5 mPa·s) - the High Temperature High Shear viscosity confirms that the oil maintains a thick, protective film between metal surfaces under the most demanding conditions inside a hot, loaded engine, meeting the minimum requirements for ACEA A3/B4 and VW 502/505.
• Low NOACK evaporation loss (9.6%) - minimizes oil consumption between changes, reduces deposit formation from oil burn-off, and maintains consistent viscosity throughout the oil change interval.
• High TBN (11.3) - Total Base Number indicates strong acid-neutralizing reserve capacity, protecting engine components from combustion acids throughout extended service intervals.
• High flash point (236°C / 457°F) - confirms excellent thermal stability and resistance to oil burn-off at operating temperatures, reducing the risk of deposit formation in hot areas such as turbocharger bearings and piston ring zones.
• Manufactured in Germany - produced entirely at LIQUI MOLY's facilities in Ulm, Germany, under continuous quality control to the same standards as LIQUI MOLY's OEM-supply products.

Product Description

LIQUI MOLY 2332 Leichtlauf High Tech is a fully synthetic SAE 5W-40 engine oil manufactured in Germany, formulated using synthesis technology base oils and a high-performance additive package for top-class lubrication in modern gasoline and diesel passenger car engines. "Leichtlauf" means low-friction in German, and this product is specifically engineered to reduce internal engine friction losses compared to conventional lubricants - supporting measurable reductions in fuel consumption and oil consumption while delivering the film strength and thermal stability required by high-output, turbocharged European engines. It is suitable for all gasoline and diesel engines that do not use diesel particulate filters (DPF) or gasoline particulate filters (GPF). Engines requiring low-SAPS or DPF-compatible oils must use a different specification - check your owner's manual before purchasing.

The 2332 carries an extensive OEM approval portfolio that makes it directly suitable - not merely "recommended" - for a wide range of European vehicles. Active approvals include BMW Longlife-01, Mercedes-Benz 229.5, Porsche A40, VW 502 00 and VW 505 00 (covering the full range of Audi and Volkswagen gasoline and non-DPF diesel engines that require these specs), Renault RN 0700/RN 0710, and PSA B71 2296. It also meets API SP and ACEA A3/B4 - the highest standard categories in both classification systems for passenger car engine oils in gasoline and non-DPF diesel applications. LIQUI MOLY additionally recommends this oil for Chrysler, Fiat, Opel/GM, and PSA applications calling for the corresponding OEM oil numbers.

The technical profile of the 2332 reflects its high-performance positioning: a kinematic viscosity of 14.7 mm²/s at 100°C with a Viscosity Index of 171 ensures consistent film thickness across a wide operating temperature range; HTHS viscosity exceeding 3.5 mPa·s confirms the oil maintains a protective film under the most demanding conditions inside hot, loaded engines; NOACK evaporation loss of just 9.6% minimizes oil consumption between changes; and a TBN of 11.3 provides strong acid-neutralizing reserve capacity throughout extended oil change intervals of up to 40,000 km (approximately 24,000 miles) where manufacturer schedules permit. The 5W grade ensures rapid cold-start lubrication down to -30°C (-22°F), while the high flash point of 236°C (457°F) confirms the oil's thermal resilience in turbocharged applications. The 5-liter plastic jug is sold as a single unit.
