ADVANTAGES

Modern engines operate in constantly changing conditions which impacts engine performance. Castrol Vecton 15W-40 CJ-4/E9 with unique System 5 TechnologyTM adapts to these changing conditions to maximise performance in 5 key areas:
1 – Fuel consumption: Fights oil thickening resulting in better fuel efficiency.
2 – Oil Consumption: Fights piston deposits, resulting in lower oil consumption.
3 – Oil Drain Interval: Fights contaminants, resulting in longer oil drain intervals.
4 – Component Life: Fights wear and corrosion, enhancing the life of critical engine components.
5 – Power: Fights soot, improving engine power all the way through the oil drain.

Castrol Vecton 15W-40 CJ-4/E9 with unique System 5 TechnologyTM adapts to changing engine conditions delivering up to 20% better engine performance*.

* in independent laboratory tests compared with API CJ-4 limits for oil thickening, piston deposits, soot handling, wear
and corrosion
