Millers Oils Trident Professional C3 5W-30
Millers Oils Trident Professional C3 5W-30 is a fully synthetic, mid SAPS engine oil formulated for the latest passenger car and light commercial engine technology. It is a professional workshop grade oil built to meet original equipment manufacturer specifications, and is recommended for engines calling for a C3 5W-30 viscosity, particularly those from the Volkswagen Audi Group, BMW and Mercedes-Benz. The oil is suitable for petrol, diesel and hybrid applications.
The mid SAPS formulation is central to what this oil does. Reduced levels of sulphated ash, phosphorus and sulphur protect diesel particulate filters and other aftertreatment hardware, while the additive system continues to control soot build up across the service interval. For any workshop running modern emissions-compliant vehicles, that combination is what allows a single 5W-30 to cover a broad section of the fleet without risking the exhaust aftertreatment.
Cold start performance is a particular strength. The oil flows readily at low temperature, reaching bearings, the valvetrain and the timing drive quickly after start up, which is when the majority of engine wear occurs. Millers Oils stop start technology in this formulation is designed to deliver that protection instantly under both hot and cold conditions, which matters increasingly on vehicles whose engines cycle on and off many times in a single journey.
At the other end of the temperature range, the fully synthetic base stock holds its viscosity under sustained thermal load, reducing wear on the engine and its components when the oil is hot and shear rates are high. The formulation is built to maintain engine cleanliness and durability over long intervals, which supports improved fuel economy, reduced emissions and extended drain capability where the manufacturer permits it.
Trident Professional C3 5W-30 carries a performance profile of ACEA C3 and API SN, CF. It is suitable for BMW Longlife-04, Chrysler MS-11106, Fiat 9.55535-S3, GM-LL-B-025, GM-LL-A-025, MB 229.51 and MB 229.31, Porsche C30, VW 504 00/507 00, VW 506 00/506 01, VW 503 00/503 01, VW 502 00/505 01 and VW 502 00/505 00, along with a range of Asian manufacturer requirements.
