ACEA C3

ACEA C3 – is a European standard that defines requirements for engine oils for high‑performance gasoline and passenger diesel engines equipped with exhaust after‑treatment systems (catalysts, DPF soot filters). An oil that meets C3 must have a low content of sulfate, aromatic and phosphorus compounds (SAPS), provide oxidation stability at high temperatures, protect against wear and deposit formation, and also support fuel economy. This code is frequently used by passenger‑car and crossover manufacturers, including diesel engines with AdBlue (SCR) technology and gasoline engines with three‑way catalysts. When selecting oil on xenum.ua, products marked ACEA C3, such as XENUM XPG 5W30 or XENUM X1 0W30, guarantee OEM compliance and long‑lasting engine protection.
