Pento High Performance 5W-30 · 5 L
The workhorse of the Pentosin oil shelf — a fully synthetic, fuel-economy 5W-30 developed for the most recent generation of European engines, in the five-litre jug that covers a whole service.
The Pentosin take on the dexos1 Gen 3 specification — a 5W-30 for modern turbocharged direct-injection gasoline engines, in the full-service five-litre jug.
Checkout, delivery, returns and warranty run entirely through the partner store.
Lab notes
dexos1 Gen 3 is the toughest version yet of the spec written for small, hot, turbocharged direct-injection engines. Its headline demand is LSPI protection — guarding against low-speed pre-ignition, the kind of event that can crack a piston in an engine barely off idle.
Pentospeed dexos1 Gen 3 answers with oxidation stability for extended drains and a low-friction 5W-30 formulation that pays back at the pump. Five litres covers the service; the matching one-litre can covers the top-offs.

The 40-weight member of the Pento High Performance family — for engines whose handbook calls for a thicker film at operating temperature.
Part number 8078106: the Super Performance III blend in the one-litre service can, labelled in three languages and sealed in Germany.
The full Pentosin shelf sits together at the partner store — easier to weigh the five-litre jugs against the top-off cans there.
