Frequently asked questions
Is Nitroma 5W-30 C3 right for my car?
Check your handbook or filler cap for ACEA C3 or one of the specifications above. If your car lists one of them, this oil meets the requirement. Not sure? Use our number-plate oil finder or send us your registration and we will confirm the correct grade.
How much oil will I need?
Most petrol and diesel cars take between 4 and 6 litres for a full oil change, so a 5L pack covers a typical service with some left for top-ups. Check your handbook for the exact capacity including the filter.
