Schedule
According to Service
Schedule
For regular operation of Multijet versions with DPF, use only original oil. In an emergency (lacking the original product) only top up with max. 0,5 l
and then drive immediately to the nearest to contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.
If using non original SAE 5W-40 products, oils with minimum ACEA A3 specifications for petrol engines and ACEA B4 specifications for Diesel engines
are admitted; in this event top engine performance is not guaranteed.
Use of products with low-quality properties than ACEA A3 and ACEA B4 could cause damages to the engine that are not covered by the warranty.
For very cold climate conditions, ask to contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services for the appropriate Seleniaproduct to use.
