Castrol Vecton 15w-40 CJ-4/E9
VISCOSITY - SAE 15w-40
For maximum engine performance
Castrol Vecton is an advanced 15W-40 diesel engine oil that maximizes engine performance in the latest US, European
and Japanese heavy-duty diesel engines including severe applications such as high loads and multi-trailer operations.
Castrol Vecton 15W-40 CJ-4/E9 is recommended for use in modern US, European and Japanese heavy duty diesel
engines. It is also suitable for use in older vehicles.
Castrol Vecton 15W-40 CJ-4/E9 is suitable for use where low ash oils are recommended or preferred by the engine
manufacturer. It is suitable for use in most applications where diesel particulate filters (DPF), diesel particulate diffusers
(DPD) or similar devices are fitted.
Castrol Vecton 15W-40 CJ-4/E9 is suitable for maximum drain intervals following engine manufacturers
recommendations.
Castrol Vecton 15W-CJ-4/E9 is suitable for use with Biodiesel as per the engine manufacturers recommended drain
intervals
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 changine 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
