OE 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil
What does OE stand for?? That’s Original Equipment. Matches exactly what your book and warranty specifies with elevated quality over the norm.
OE Synthetic Motor Oil is for mechanics and drivers seeking peace of mind protection and exceptional value in synthetic motor oil. It delivers 100 percent synthetic engine protection for advanced automotive technology, including turbochargers and direct injection. OE is specifically formulated for the longer drain intervals recommended by original equipment (OE) manufacturers.
OE is for that customer not needing the higher performance motor oil but wants to use a TRUE synthetic at the top of the lube center class of oil. This is also popular and ideal if you want a better oil in your service center at a competitive price. AMSOIL’s goal was to have “Best in class” for the particular price range.

Provides Advanced Wear Protection
OE Synthetic Motor Oil provides excellent wear control and protects critical engine parts like pistons and cams. This added protection is particularly important in the extreme environments produced by today’s smaller displacement engines that often run lower viscosity oil. Camshaft wear can result in poor valve timing, greatly reducing engine efficiency and leading to expensive repairs. The Peugeot TU3M Wear Test (CEC L-38-A-94), which must be passed to meet the GM* dexos1® Gen 2 specification, determines a motor oil’s ability to limit wear. For 100 hours the four-cylinder test engine is subjected to extreme, wear-inducing conditions. AMSOIL OE Motor Oil provided 47 percent more wear protection than required by the GM dexos1 Gen 2 specification.
Note on this dexos1 Gen 2
Now to pass Gen2 it’s not a test of no failures but a level of an ok number of failures which are micro detonation events which leave visible damage to pistons. AMSOIL passes without any damage. Real protection not available elsewhere.

Protects Pistons from Low-Speed Pre-Ignition
OE Synthetic Motor Oil features unique chemistry proven to protect your engine against the harmful effects of low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI). LSPI is the spontaneous ignition of the fuel/air mixture prior to spark-triggered ignition. Most new engines feature gasoline direct injection (GDI), often coupled with a turbocharger. These technologies heighten the possibility of LSPI events, which can destroy pistons and connecting rods. A properly formulated motor oil is critical for protecting your engine against LSPI.
Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) like GM have addressed the issue by designing tests to determine a motor oil’s ability to prevent LSPI. OE Synthetic Motor Oil achieved 100 percent protection against LSPI2 in the engine test required by the GM dexos1 Gen 2 specification– zero occurrences were recorded throughout five consecutive tests.
Keeps Engines Clean
OE Synthetic Motor Oil has a 100 percent synthetic, pure chemical structure that is engineered to remove harmful contaminants. Its synthetic base oils naturally resist chemical breakdown to help prevent deposits. Its detergent and dispersant additives give OE excellent sludge and deposit fighting properties. OE Synthetic Motor Oil helps keep your engine clean, reliable and running at peak performance.

Protects in All Temperatures
Synthetic base oils and an advanced additive package make OE Synthetic Motor Oil ideal for today’s hotter running engines. It effectively fights heat to control deposits, prevent thickening and limit oil consumption. OE’s uniform structure keeps it fluid in low temperatures for easier cold starts and rapid lubrication of components to reduce start-up wear. Remember those competing products called “fully Synthetic” will thicken and leave deposits should you have the most minor overheating or imminent engine problem. That’s why AMSOIL was developed, to safeguard you when these things happen.
Improves Fuel Economy & Maintains Low Emissions
OE Synthetic Motor Oil is licensed by the American Petroleum Institute (API) to meet and exceed the requirements commonly found in owner’s manuals. It excels in fuel-economy testing, earning the additional “Resource Conserving” designation from the API. OE is also friendly toward modern emissions-control systems, promoting proper operation of catalytic converters for optimum service life and low exhaust emissions.

OE Synthetic Reviews
Great for Hemi
By NORMAN, a Verified Buyer on November 13, 2024
I have the notorious Hemi cold start tick. I’ve used other full synthetic oils such as mobile 1, Pennzoil, and eventually the Walmart oil. AMSOIL eliminated the cold start tick!
great service
By Bernie, a Verified Buyer from Ontario, Canada on November 09, 2024
Good selection of oil packages with quality filter, and less expensive with home delivery than purchasing at local auto parts store. Will do this again next oil change.

With this oil and filter combination you really get you moneys worth.
Great Product
By DANIEL, a Verified Buyer from Wisconsin on November 02, 2024
I run AMSOIL in all my engines. I am always impressed with the improvement in engine noise and longevity of the oil quality.
Jeep wrangler JL 4 cylinder turbo
By MARK, a Verified Buyer from British Columbia on October 25, 2024
Put amsoil in the jeep 4 cylinder turbo. Actually quieted this engine down almost immediately. Amsoil best oil to keep your engines running better longer
Good initial impression.
By Shea, a Verified Buyer on September 02, 2019
Bought Amsoil to run in my wife’s new 2019 Subaru Forester. Did a short interval initially to get the engine break in oil out of the car and noticed smoother idle and better gas mileage. I plan on changing all of my vehicles (except for my Subaru STi) and lawn equipment over to Amsoil as I exhaust my oil stash.
I would recommend you try it, you’ll be glad you did.
By Michael, a Verified Buyer on September 01, 2019
Used amsoil for decades in a company fleet of 26 construction vehicles, plus my personal fleet of 18 classic and off-road vehicles. Also use 2 stroke lubricants for my outboards. Never lost a engine or gearbox in any of these vehicles as a result of poor lubrication.
I would definitely buy this product again!
By Van, a Verified Buyer on July 11, 2019
Run this in my GMC Sierra, and I plan to continue. Great oil! Reduced lifter noise to almost nothing and oil doesn’t seem to sludge up when going over the service mileage.
2008 Toyota Highlander 325000 km
By Kirk, a Verified Buyer on July 11, 2019
My 2008 Toyota Highlander has 325000 km on it. My oil change interval is every 15000 km. Runs and accelerate as smooth as the day I bought it.
Quality oil for the Rockies
By Jon, a Verified Buyer on July 02, 2019
Quality Amsoil oil for my 6.2 L Denali. Works well in the heat and cold of Colorado.
Testing products
By John, a Verified Buyer on June 27, 2019
I am now comparing Amsoil with another product on price, life, and evaporation. So far the increase in mileage per gallon is equal. Evaporation will need more miles to be sure, but it looks the same right now. I did not need to add until I had 1500 miles on the new oil. Price: depends on longevity. I changed oil & filter at 7000
