Imperial Oil Introduces New Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5W-40 for Light and Heavy Duty Trucks

Calgary, AB, May 14, 2007
Significant growth of light-duty and heavy duty diesel-powered trucks as "working" vehicles has created a need for engine-specific high-performance motor oils. A new product from Imperial Oil, Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5W-40, is filling that need by providing superior protection and helping to extend the engine life of these hard-working trucks.

Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5W-40 is now available at leading automotive retailers, OE installers and participating Esso service stations and Imperial Oil branded distributors.

With the popularity of diesel-powered light trucks continuing to grow, Imperial Oil engineered Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5W-40 to help extend engine life in modern turbo-charged diesel engines, even those operating in severe conditions such as towing and hauling. Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck controls low-temperature sludge build-up and high-temperature deposits through excellent thermal and oxidation stability. High temperatures pose little threat, as Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck maintains its viscosity and has enhanced oil film strength, helping to reduce engine scuffing and bore polishing. It also provides wear protection and reduced oil consumption with its shear stability.

"Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck uses state-of-the-art technology to deliver exceptional performance in modern low emission engines," said Colin Cochran, Line of Business Advisor - Imperial Oil Lubricants & Specialties. "Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck is a high-performance motor oil that offers superior protection for hard-working diesel engines."
