Overview
MOTUL H-TECH 100 PLUS 5W-30 is a 100% Synthetic Fuel Economy engine oil specially formulated to provide the ultimate level of performance especially for recent gasoline engine designs. It is suitable for turbocharged or naturally aspirated, direct or indirect injection gasoline engines equipped with catalytic converters, and for all gasoline engines using leaded or unleaded gasoline, LPG or Autogas fuel — compatible with E85, and suited to City, Road and Highway driving conditions.
Compatibility
Compatibility information not available.
Key Features
- Meets API SP and ILSAC GF-6A specifications; API SP is fully backward compatible over API SN and all former standards
- ILSAC GF-6 standard is more severe than API SP alone, especially on energy-saving criteria, and demonstrates greater emission-system and turbocharger protection
- Excellent fuel economy and performance at cold temperature
- Protection from Low Speed Pre-Ignition (LSPI) to prevent premature hardware failure
- Additional timing chain and valve train wear protection for engine durability
- Improved piston cleanliness with anti-deposit and anti-sludge protection
- Protects vehicle emission system components for emission-control-system durability
- Outstanding oxidation resistance, preventing premature oil thickening/ageing from thermal stress
- Anti-corrosion, anti-foam properties
Applications
- Recent-generation gasoline engines, turbocharged or naturally aspirated, direct or indirect injection, fitted with catalytic converters
- Engines running on leaded or unleaded gasoline, LPG, or Autogas fuel
- Downsized direct-injection turbocharged gasoline engines at risk of LSPI
- E85 (ethanol) fuel compatible
- City, Road, and Highway driving conditions

FAQ
What standards does Motul H-TECH 100 PLUS 5W-30 meet?
It meets API SP and ILSAC GF-6A. ILSAC GF-6 is more severe than API SP alone, especially on energy-saving criteria.
How does the 5W-30 differ from the H-TECH 100 PLUS 10W-40?
The 5W-30 adds ILSAC GF-6A certification and is positioned as the fuel-economy grade, versus the 10W-40 sibling which meets plain API SP.
Is Motul H-TECH 100 PLUS 5W-30 compatible with E85/ethanol fuel?
Yes, it is E85 fuel compatible.
