Engine Oils
Passenger Car Engine Oil
Every journey begins with trust. Trust that your vehicle will reliably take you from A to B. Recognizing the diversity of engines, we've designed a wide range of car engine oil products for different car types, including standard and synthetic engine oils.
Our standard engine oil extends engine life by lubricating, cleaning, cooling, and protecting against corrosion. On the other hand, synthetic engine oil is crafted for sustained peak performance, maintaining optimal viscosity and film thickness at all temperatures. This results in superior engine protection, resistance to oxidation for a cleaner engine, and an extended oil life.
Whatever the situation, Gulf engine oils ensure you're always in safe hands.
Gulf LubricantsKeep You on the Road
Engine oils are crucial for the proper functioning of vehicle engines. Extreme temperatures and numerous moving parts require effective lubrication. Gulf's engine oils provide the necessary lubrication to prevent performance issues and high maintenance costs. Choosing the right motor oil ensures your engine operates smoothly. Proper lubrication is key to extending the life of your vehicle.
Gulf Formula
Advanced Full Synthetic Engine Oil
Sustained peak performance is what every true motor enthusiast is chasing. With modern engines getting more compact, more powerful and more efficient every year, they need a lubricant that can keep up. Gulf Formula is that lubricant. An advanced full synthetic oil with its ThermoShield Technology remains stable even under the most stressful, high-temperature conditions. They prevent oil from rapid deterioration to help sustain peak performance.

How to Read Engine Oil Viscosity Grades
When choosing the right oil for your engine, it’s helpful if you can read and understand the engine oil viscosity grades. They consist of three parts and stem from the climatic conditions in which you’re driving.
For Multigrade car engine oils, the number before “W” indicates the oil’s viscosity characteristics at cold temperatures (commonly known as winter grades) and the numbers “YY” indicate viscosity characteristics at high temperatures (commonly known as summer grades). Multigrade engine oils can perform efficiently at both low and high temperatures for improved cold starting and to safeguard the engine respectively.
For Monograde engine oils, oil grades with suffix "W" are typically used in extreme cold conditions i.e SAE 20W. The engine oil without "W" are best used in the warmer climatic conditions i.e SAE 20. Temperature fluctuations have less of an impact on Multigrade oils than they do on monograde oils.
For example, for SAE 5W-30 viscosity grade, 5W represents the viscosity at low temperature (cold-start/winter) and 30 represents the viscosity at higher temperature (summer).
