FAQ
What are the advantages of BASINOL engine oils for cars and vans?
BASINOL engine oils are specially designed to meet the requirements of modern vehicles and offer numerous advantages:
- Optimum wear protection: our oils reduce friction and protect engine components from premature wear even under extreme conditions.
- Improved engine performance: High-quality additives ensure clean combustion and stable viscosity over long running times.
- Increased fuel efficiency: By reducing friction losses, BASINOL engine oils help to lower fuel consumption and reduce CO₂ emissions.
- Longer oil change intervals: Thanks to high oxidation resistance, our oils enable longer change intervals, which reduces maintenance costs.
- Suitable for modern and older vehicles: Our engine oils meet the latest manufacturer specifications and offer protection for a wide range of petrol, diesel and hybrid engines.
Can I use the same engine oil for gasoline, diesel and hybrid engines?
Many BASINOL engine oils are suitable for gasoline, diesel, and hybrid engines, as they have been specifically developed to meet the requirements of modern drive technologies. However, there are differences in the composition of the oils that can be crucial depending on the engine type. For example, additional oils for diesel engines often contain cleaning additives to minimize soot and deposit formation.
Hybrid vehicles place special demands on engine oil, as their engines require improved lubricity and thermal stability due to frequent starting and stopping. BASINOL offers specially developed engine oils for hybrid drives that are optimally tailored to these loads and impress with particularly stable viscosity and high oxidation resistance.
To ensure optimal lubrication and the best possible engine protection, we recommend always checking the manufacturer’s specifications in the vehicle manual and selecting an oil that meets the respective specifications and OEM approvals.
How often should the engine oil in my van be changed?
The recommended oil change frequency varies depending on the vehicle model, engine size, and operating conditions. The following generally applies:
• Normal use (urban and rural): Change the oil every 15,000 to 30,000 kilometers or according to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications.
• Intensive use (e.g., construction sites, short-distance travel, heavy loads): Shortened intervals of 10,000 to 15,000 kilometers, as the engine is subject to greater stress.
• Long-life engine oils: Some modern vans are designed for extended oil change intervals of up to 50,000 kilometers when operated with special long-life oils.
Regular oil level checks are essential to ensure optimal engine protection. A low oil level or oil that is too old can lead to increased wear and loss of power.
