Why Mobil 1 Triple Action Power+ 0W-20 Stands Out
Mobil 1 Triple Action Power+ 0W-20 is prepped for modern engines demanding high performance, exceptional protection, and superior cleanliness. Developed as a full synthetic oil, this formula brings together:
-
Performance: Reduces daily wear and stress to prolong engine life. Mobil
-
Protection: Offers 30× better protection at high temperatures compared to API SP spec, safeguarding your engine from thermal breakdowns. Mobil
-
Cleanliness: Prevents up to 99.9% of harmful acidic contaminants, keeping the engine cleaner and reducing sludge buildup. Mobil
-
Fuel Economy: Improves efficiency by approximately 8.4%, helping you save on fuel costs. Mobil
Technical Specs at a Glance:
Property | Value |
---|---|
Pour Point | −48 °C |
Viscosity Index | 163 |
Viscosity @100 °C | 8.4 mm²/s |
High-Temp High-Shear Viscosity | 2.6 mPa·s |
Total Base Number (TBN) | 9.2 |
These specs underscore its stability under extreme cold startups and high thermal conditions, making it a reliable choice across Malaysia’s varied climate. Mobil
How Temperature Impacts Engine Parts & Longevity
Cold Conditions
Viscosity might increase when cold, hampering oil flow. But with 0W-20, its low "0" grade ensures easy flow and lubrication even at sub-zero temperatures, protecting the engine at startup and reducing wear on critical components.
High Heat & Traffic
Malaysia’s tropical heat and stop-go traffic can significantly stress engines—raising operating temperatures and increasing thermal-thinning of oil. Mobil 1’s thermal stability, high viscosity index, and high-temp shear resistance combat this, maintaining protective films and reducing wear.
Cleanliness & Longevity
Sludge and acid build-up from combustion and oil breakdown can degrade engine parts over time. The excellent TBN and anti-acid performance of this oil neutralizes acids and prevents deposits, ensuring sustained engine efficiency and added lifespan.
Examples of Malaysian Cars That Use 0W-20
Several popular models on Malaysian roads either recommend or benefit from 0W-20 oil:
-
Perodua Axia & Bezza: These entry-level compact cars often use Perodua’s own Fully Synthetic 0W-20 engine oil. It's prized for improved fuel efficiency, thermal and oxidation stability, and excellent cold-start protection.
-
Honda Models (e.g., City, Civic): Honda Malaysia has standardized SN 0W-20 full-synthetic oil in their service packages. It balances smooth engine performance and fuel economy.
-
Compact Cars <1,200 cc: small-engine vehicles common in urban Malaysia. It offers better fuel economy, superior wear protection, and low evaporation—ideal for stop-start conditions.
Final Thoughts
Mobil 1 Triple Action Power+ 0W-20 excels across key areas:
-
Performance: Ideal for both cold start and sustained high-heat scenarios.
-
Protection: Shields your engine from thermal stress and wear.
-
Cleanliness: Prevents sludge buildup and acid damage.
-
Efficiency: Helps reduce fuel consumption—important under Malaysia’s hot and congested driving conditions.
Its technical credentials, backed by measurable improvements in protection and economy, make it a top-tier choice—especially for drivers of 0W-20–certified vehicles like Perodua and Honda models.
