RAVENOL USVO VSI 5W-40 Engine Oil is a fully synthetic low-viscosity engine oil with unique USVO and CleanSynto technologies, which utilises the very latest additives to ensure a maximum fuel efficiency of both petrol and diesel engines. It has full OEM approval from Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Porsche and Renault. The unique formulation guarantees excellent cold start characteristics and minimal oil consumption resulting from evaporation. Suitable for all driving conditions from stop-start city traffic to long distance, high speed motorway driving.
RAVENOL USVO VSI 5W-40 Engine Oil is suitable for the energy saving operation all the year of all modern cars with petrol and diesel engines and was specially developed for turbo chargers as well as catalysts.

Benefits of USVO® Technology:
• EXCELLENT HIGH TEMPERATURE VISCOSITY (HTHS AT 150 °C)
Barely any shearing loss during operation, which means that the lubricant film is permanently maintained during operation.
• EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AT LOW TEMPERATURES (CCS AT -30 °C)
The lubricant is always able to flow so that direct engine lubrication is guaranteed even for cold starts.
• VERY GOOD OXIDATION STABILITY
Oxidation stable lubricants have increased resistance against reacting with oxygen and temperatures. This increases the lubricant service life, which permanently prevents deposits (sludge) and maintains the lubrication properties.
• VERY LOW LOSSES DUE TO EVAPORATION
Only a few components of the oil evaporate at the high operating temperatures. As a result, the engine oil level drops only slightly and the environment is not additionally polluted by the gases.
• HIGH VISCOSITY INDEX
a high viscosity index illustrates a weak temperature-dependent viscosity change compared to a low viscosity index.
• VERY LOW POUR POINT
The pour point is the lowest temperature above which an oil is liquid. As a result, lubrication is guaranteed, even at the lowest temperatures.
The interaction of the properties ensures that a thick protective film is formed during vehicle operation, which remains stable even under high thermal and mechanical stresses.

Ravenol has made it their mission to master the technological challenges of the future of lubricants and have therefore developed the ultimate in automotive lubrication technology......USVO®
What is USVO® technology?
Lubricant requirements for modern vehicles are becoming increasingly demanding, with unwanted changes in viscosity quickly causing serious problems. To counter this, Ravenol has developed the USVO® lubricant technology to provide a very high viscosity stability at both high and low temperatures. To achieve this only the highest quality fully synthetic base oils and additives are used. USVO® stands for Ultra Strong Viscosity Oil.
THANKS TO THE IDEAL COMBINATION OF COMPONENTS, RAVENOL HAS CREATED FORMULATIONS WITH THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS:
• EXCELLENT HIGH TEMPERATURE VISCOSITY (HTHS AT 150 °C)Barely any viscosity loss during operation, which means that the lubricant film is permanently maintained during operation.
• EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AT LOW TEMPERATURES (CCS AT -30 °C)The lubricant is always flows freely so that direct engine lubrication is guaranteed even for cold starts.
• VERY GOOD OXIDATION STABILITYOxidation stable lubricants have increased resistance against reacting with oxygen and temperatures. This increases the lubricant service life, which permanently prevents deposits (sludge) and maintains the lubrication properties.
• VERY LOW LOSSES DUE TO EVAPORATIONOnly a few components of the oil evaporate at the high operating temperatures. As a result, the engine oil level drops only slightly and the environment is not additionally polluted by the gases.
• HIGH VISCOSITY INDEXA high viscosity index illustrates a reduced temperature-dependent viscosity change compared to a low viscosity index.
• VERY LOW POUR POINTThe pour point is the lowest temperature above which an oil is liquid. As a result, lubrication is guaranteed, even at the lowest temperatures. Even if we never get temperatures this low in the UK, the lower the pour point, the better the quality of the lubricant.
| Properties of the RAVENOL-USVO® qualities
Thanks to their technical properties, RAVENOL USVO® lubricants optimise engine performance and noticeably reduce fuel consumption at the same time. This benefits the environment, as lower fuel consumption leads to reduced CO2 emissions.
CCS = Low temperature viscosity PP = Temperature of loss of fluidity MRV = Low temperature viscosity when pumping through SSI = Mechanical shear strength

FREE DELIVERY ON ORDERS OVER £90.00 (Mainland UK ONLY)
Note that as a result of restrictions in force regarding the coronavirus and resulting staff shortages we can no longer guarantee a next day delivery service. Our shipping days are Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and orders received before 11.00am on those days will normally be sent straight out. Orders received after 11.00am and on Tuesdays and Thursdays will leave the next shipping day. Due to the increased documentation created by BREXIT we are currently unable to ship out orders to Mainland Europe or the Republic of Ireland.
Delivery Charges to Mainland UK ex. Highlands:
For deliveries within Mainland UK we have an Express delivery (1-2 working days on orders received before 9.00am) for £6.75 for orders under £90.00 in product value (including packaging and VAT), based on a single delivery address per order. ORDERS OVER £90.00 IN PRODUCT VALUE WILL BE DELIVERED FREE OF CHARGE! This offer applies only to deliveries to Mainland UK and is not valid for deliveries to Scottish Highlands, offshore islands and Northern Ireland. You will receive an e-mail with tracking details once the order has ben shipped.
Mainland UK Express delivery does not include the Highlands and Islands of Scotland (as defined by DHL), Northern Ireland, Isle of Man and Isles of Scilly - in case of uncertainty please just type your postcode into the box provided in the Shopping Basket.

General:
Please include your mobile phone number when checking out so that you automatically receive an SMS from DHL Parcels UK confirming that the goods have been collected from our warehouse and informing you of the expected delivery date and one-hour slot. All deliveries sent with DHL Parcels are supplied on a signature required service. If you have asked for the parcel to left in a safe place, we will convey this instruction to the courier but cannot guarantee this will be done as the service is a POD service and items left without signature are at the discretion of the driver. Please note that DHL Parcels may use sub-contract transport companies - we cannot therefor guarantee that specific instructions, especially requests for the driver to call beforehand, will be carried out. Please bear in mind that these drivers often have a hundred or more deliveries to make in one day!
If the customer requests delivery to be left in a 'safe place' we cannot be held responsible for loss.
Carriage / Packing charges are subsidised and do not even cover our own net costs - we do not make a profit on carriage! If you have any queries regarding our carriage charges or delivery to an address, please contact us. Please be aware weights shown on products are approximate and shown only as a guide to the total weight of your order.
