SAE = Society of Automotive Engineers
The fluidity of a motor oil is described in SAE-classes. For example, a motor oil with SAE 5W-40, the first digit describes the thinness at low temperatures. The smaller the digit the better and faster the motor oil can flow at low temperatures.
Thus it reaches the remote lubrication point in the engine faster. The second digit indicates the fluidity at high temperatures.
| 0W-30 | 5W-30 |
| 5W-40 | 10W-30 |
| 10W-40 | 15W-40, etc. |
ACEA = Association des Constructeurs Européens d’Automobiles
Engine oil specifications differentiate for petrol and diesel engines between Ax/Bx and the Cx classifications for which sulphate-ash, sulfur and phosphorus were reduced.
| A | Petrol engines (cars) |
| B | Diesel engines for cars, vans, transporters |
| C | Petrol and diesel engines for cars with new exhaust aftertreatment systems |
| E | Truck diesel engines |
API = American Petroleum Institute
