Description
SONIC GOLD SL 0W30 is a 100% PAO based synthetic gasoline engine oil while SONIC GOLD SL 5W20, 5W30, 10W30 and 20W50 are synthetic blends. SONIC GOLD SL is recommended for use where API "SM, SL", ILSAC "GF-4", and ENERGY CONSERVING is called for. It has the ability to significantly reduce engine wear experienced during cold starting conditions. It offers superior oxidation resistance and shear stability, which greatly reduces engine varnish protecting vital parts. SONIC GOLD SL is specially formulated with higher TBN levels to maximize engine oil life. It meets or exceeds global valve train wear performance and requirements. SONIC GOLD SL offers superior low temperature performance.
Applications
SONIC GOLD SL is blended for year around use in all gasoline vehicles, including those with turbo charged engines, high torque naturally aspirated engines, or racing engines. SONIC GOLD SL is recommended for use in prestige or high performance European, Asian or North American vehicles. It has the ability to significantly increase engine life and performance.
