Motul Asian Import Motor Oil 5W-30 | Case of 4x5L | Full Synthetic Engine Oil for Japanese Vehicles

The Motul Asian Import Motor Oil 5W-30 is a full synthetic engine oil formulated specifically for Japanese import vehicles — engineered to meet the specific lubrication requirements, viscosity specifications, and additive chemistry demands of Japanese engines from manufacturers including Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Subaru, Mazda, and Mitsubishi. Sold as a case of four 5-litre bottles (20 litres total) — the correct quantity for multiple oil changes or for shops and enthusiasts who service multiple Japanese vehicles. Motul is one of the world's most respected lubricant brands — with over 160 years of lubricant development experience and a motorsport heritage that spans Formula 1, Le Mans, and the World Rally Championship.

Key Features:

• Full synthetic formulation — full synthetic base oil for superior thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and engine protection compared to conventional or semi-synthetic alternatives
• 5W-30 viscosity — the correct viscosity grade for a wide range of Japanese import engines — low cold-start viscosity for fast oil circulation at startup, correct operating viscosity for engine protection under load
• Asian Import specific formulation — additive chemistry and viscosity profile engineered for the specific requirements of Japanese import engines — correct for Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Subaru, Mazda, Mitsubishi, and other Japanese manufacturers
• Case of 4x5L — 20 litres total — correct quantity for multiple oil changes or for shops and enthusiasts servicing multiple Japanese vehicles
• Motul quality — manufactured by Motul, one of the world's most respected lubricant brands with over 160 years of lubricant development experience

Why Asian Import Specific Oil?

• Japanese Engine Requirements: Japanese engines — particularly from Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Subaru, and Mazda — are engineered with specific lubrication requirements that differ from European and North American engines. Japanese manufacturers typically specify oils that meet ILSAC GF-6A and API SP standards with specific additive chemistry profiles — including correct levels of ZDDP (zinc dialkyldithiophosphate) for valve train protection, correct detergent and dispersant chemistry for Japanese engine cleanliness requirements, and correct friction modifier chemistry for fuel economy compliance. A generic oil that meets API SP may not be optimized for the specific additive chemistry that Japanese engines are designed around.
• ILSAC GF-6A Compliance: ILSAC GF-6A is the current International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee standard — the standard that Japanese manufacturers specify for their engines. GF-6A compliance ensures correct fuel economy performance, correct engine cleanliness, correct timing chain wear protection, and correct low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) protection — a failure mode that affects turbocharged direct-injection Japanese engines (Toyota 2.0T, Honda 1.5T, etc.) when incorrect oil chemistry is used.
• LSPI Protection: Low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) is a destructive combustion event that can occur in turbocharged direct-injection engines at low RPM and high load — caused in part by incorrect oil additive chemistry. ILSAC GF-6A compliant oils include the correct additive chemistry to minimize LSPI risk — a critical consideration for modern turbocharged Japanese engines.

Compatibility:

• Correct for Japanese import vehicles specifying a 5W-30 full synthetic engine oil meeting ILSAC GF-6A or API SP standards
• Verify your specific vehicle's oil specification in the owner's manual before use — some Japanese vehicles specify different viscosity grades (0W-20, 0W-16, 5W-20) or additional OEM-specific approvals (Toyota WS, Honda HTO-06, etc.)
• Note: Always verify the correct oil specification for your specific vehicle make, model, year, and engine before use. Using an incorrect viscosity grade or oil specification can affect engine performance, fuel economy, and warranty compliance.

What's Included:

• Motul Asian Import Motor Oil 5W-30 — 5L bottle x4 (20L total)

Why Motul?

Motul is a French lubricant brand founded in 1853 — with over 160 years of lubricant development experience and a motorsport heritage that includes Formula 1, Le Mans 24 Hours, Dakar Rally, and the World Rally Championship. Motul's lubricant lineup spans engine oils, gear oils, brake fluids, and specialty lubricants for automotive, motorcycle, and industrial applications — all developed with the same engineering rigour that their motorsport partnerships demand. For Japanese import vehicle owners who want a quality full synthetic 5W-30 from a brand with genuine lubricant engineering credentials, Motul Asian Import is a well-regarded choice.

Perfect For:

• Japanese import vehicle owners (Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Subaru, Mazda, Mitsubishi) who want a full synthetic 5W-30 specifically formulated for Japanese engine requirements
• Shops and enthusiasts who service multiple Japanese vehicles and want the value and convenience of a 4x5L case quantity
• Modern turbocharged direct-injection Japanese engines (Toyota 2.0T, Honda 1.5T, Subaru FA/FB series) where ILSAC GF-6A compliance and LSPI protection are important considerations
• High-mileage Japanese import engines where a quality full synthetic with correct additive chemistry supports engine cleanliness and long-term protection

Note: Case of 4x5L — 20 litres total. Always verify the correct oil viscosity and specification for your specific vehicle before use — some Japanese vehicles specify 0W-20, 0W-16, or 5W-20 rather than 5W-30. Verify OEM-specific approval requirements for your vehicle before use.
