Scania oil
If your engine could choose
Interacting with every moving part of the engine, oil is a critical component - playing a vital role in the environmental impact, performance and economy of your Scania engine. And as modern, high-tech engines increasingly feature innovative materials and more-exacting tolerances, the need for a tailored, optimized oil blend for each engine family becomes more important than ever. That’s why for more than 20 years, Scania has developed, field tested, engineered and specified oil blends for each of its engine families.
Less fuel
Using Scania approved oil versus general market oils results in improved fuel economy and therefore reduced fuel costs – better for your economy and the environment.
More uptime
Depending on the vehicle application and usage, service intervals can be significantly extended, giving you more time on the road.
Environmental benefits
A sustainable win-win; improved fuel economy, and fewer oil changes reduce your environmental impact.
Ultimate Protection
Protect your investment in a premium engine with a premium oil. You can rely on Scania Oils; they are developed, tested and proven.There is no better protection for your Scania engine than Scania Oil.
We engineer the oil - as we would any other component
Scania Oil is engineered to deliver the best possible performance, economy and protection for your engine. But what is the science behind producing an oil that matches the exact requirements of your engine? Scania’s Mattias Berger, Senior Technical Manager explains how oil blends differ and what makes Scania Oil the best choice for a Scania Engine.
Scania oils - engineered to deliver
All Scania Oil is engineered to deliver maximum performance in terms of protection, fuel economy and environmental impact. And our latest generation LDF-4 oil takes that performance to a new level – significantly reducing fuel consumption over LDF-3 10W-40, and doubling the change interval for the particulate filter.
Choosing the perfect oil for your scania engine
Scania Oil E7 15W-40
- Scania Oil E7 is developed for markets requesting ACEA E7-quality oil – Scania Oil E7 meets Scania´s minimum oil quality requirements.
- Valid for normal oil drain intervals.
- Valid for inline as well as V8 engines
- Not suitable for engines with after-treatment systems.
Scania Oil LDF-3 10W-40A
- Scania Oil LDF-3 10W-40 is developed to provide the best total operating economy for Scania Euro V engines (or older) and is also valid for Scania Euro VI engines with an after-treatment system.
- Allows extended oil drain intervals.
- Valid for inline as well as V8 engines.
- Works just as well with poor quality fuel (high sulphur content).
Scania Oil LDF-4
- Scania Oil LDF-4 is specially developed to provide best total operating economy for Scania Euro VI engines.
- Valid for CNG and LNG engines.
- Allows extended oil drain intervals.
- Allows extended particulate filter change intervals (double compared with Scania Oil LDF-3).
- Scania Oil LDF-4 is a low viscosity oil that reduces fuel consumption, lowering fuel costs and environmental impact.
- Must be used with high quality fuel; max 10ppm sulphur.

Did you know
- Scania rigorously field tests all oil blends on Scania engines – the only manufacturer to do so.
- Scania Oil composition is unique – each blend is designed for each engine family.
- Scania Oil minimizes aftertreatment impact, oil and fuel consumption.
- Scania Oil specifications build on The European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA, www.acea.be) ACEA E9 specifications for highly rated diesel engines meeting Euro 1 through 6 emission requirements.
- Suitable for engines with or without particulate filters, and for most engines fitted with SCR NOx reduction systems.
- LDF stands for Long Drain Field Test which means that we test the oils and engines for 155,000 km in long haulage instead of 60,000 km, before draining it and examining the engine parts.
- Scania LDF-4 roughly doubles the change interval on the DPF (exhaust particulate filer).
Sub-optimal oil = sub-optimal performance
- Increased oil consumption.
- Increased tappet and roller wear.
- Increased likelihood of oil acidification leading to soft metal corrosion and piston deposits.
- Increased engine sludge with potential to block filters and even oilways.
- Reduced lubrication in cold starts, increasing wear.
- Increased fuel consumption caused by wrong viscosity.
