Engine oil norms.
Current norms.
The classification of these engine oils is established by the following
recognised organisations:
- S.A.E : Society of Automotive Engineers.
- API: American Petroleum Institute.
- ACEA: Association des Constructeurs Européens d'Automobiles.S.A.E. Norms - Table for selection of engine oil grade.
Selection of engine oil grades recommended for climatic conditions in
countries of distribution
(see table, paragraph 3.3).
Evolution of the norms to 01/01/2003.
ACEA 2003 norms.
The meaning of the first letter has not changed, it still corresponds
to the type of engine:
A: petroland dual fuelpetrol / LPG engines.
B: dieselengines.
The figure following the first letter corresponds to the type of oil:
3:high performance oils.
4:oils specifically for direct injection diesel engines.
5:very high performance oils permitting lower fuel consumption, specific to
direct injection diesel engines.
Example:
- ACEA A3: high performance oils specifically for petrol and dual fuel petrol/
LPG engines.
- ACEA A/B: blended oils giving very high performance for all engines, also
permitting better fuel economy, specifically for direct injection diesel engines.
NOTE: From 01/01/2003there is no longer any reference to the year of
creation of the norm
(example : ACEA A3/B3 98becomes ACEA A3/B3).

API Norms:
The meaning of the first letter has not changed, it still corresponds to the
type of engine:
S: petroland dual fuel petrol/ LPG engines.
C: diesel engines.
The second letter corresponds to the degree of evolution of the oil
(ascending order).
Example:Norm SLis more severe than norm SJ, corresponding to
a higher level of performance.
Recommendations.
ESSENTIAL: To preserve engine performances, all engines fitted in
CITROËN vehicles must be lubricated with high quality oils
(synthetic
or semi-synthetic).
CITROËNengines are lubricated at the factory with TOTALoil of grade
S.A.E 5W-30.
TOTALoil of grade S.A.E 5W-30allows improved fuel economies
(approx 2.5%).
The oil 5W30is used only for the following engines (year 2004):
- XU10 J4RS: XSARA VTS 2.0i 16V (3-door).
- SOFIM: JUMPER / RELAY 2.8 TDi and 2.8 HDi.
- HDi: With particle filter (FAP).
- DV4 TED4: CITROËN C3 1.4 16V HDi.
- EW 12J4: CITROËN C8 2.2i.
- EW 10A: CITROËN C4 and C5 2.0i.
- EW10J4Sengine : CITROËN C4.WARNING: CITROËN engines prior to model year 2000 do not have
to be lubricated with oils adhering to the norms:
- ACEA AI-98and API SJ/CF ECor current norms ACEA A5/B5.
