OUR SALES PROGRAMME:
ENGINE OILS
Under engine oil, the quality of a lubricant suitable for
lubricating a combustion engine is most important.
Engine oils are primarily used to lubricate the engine
moving parts and reduce friction. In addition, they
can absorb mechanical abrasion and combustion residues.
In doing so, they also have a cleansing effect.
They protect against rust, cool down engine parts
becoming particularly hot, and impermeability.
Our AVIATICON engine oils are designed for a
wide range of engines – passenger cars and utility
vehicles, two-stroke engines, engines of agricultural
equipment such as tractors, building machines, marine
engines, gas and lawn mower engines – and are
also available as anti-corrosion oils.
When selecting the correct and suitable engine
oil, manufacturer approvals must be observed
(e. g. Mercedes Benz approval 229.51 or VW 504.00/
507.00). If no special manufacturer approvals are
available, then API or ACEA specifications must be
adhered to. The specifications required for choosing
the correct oil can be found in the operating instructions
of the relevant engine or in our Oil Finder at
www.finke-oil.de.
be noted, however, that the oil change intervals
approved by manufacturers may change.
Closed engine oil containers can be stored without
problems for about 3 years. Open containers should
be properly disposed of after one year.
The addition of special additives from “promising”
engine oil additives is categorically rejected by
almost all automotive manufacturers. As a matter
of fact, Mercedes Benz prescribes that adding special
additives to lubricants shall solely be the vehicle
owner’s sole responsibility. In so doing, in a damage
event, warranty and warranty claims may be restricted.
We also strongly advise against adding special
additives to engine oils since a subsequent mixture
can adversely affect the balance between oil and
additives.
You can find the definitions of technical terms
such as API, ACEA, SAE at www.finke-oil.de/

If vehicles do not have an automatic oil level indicator,
we recommend checking the oil level after every
third tank refill. A question that is frequently raised
concerns the miscibility of different types of oil. In
general, one can say that varieties having identical
specifications can be mixed with each other. Also, it
does not matter whether it is mineral or synthetic oil
– mixing high-quality varieties is harmless. It should
