Caring for the older generation

Everyone agrees that brand new and high mileage cars need completely different care. For some, everything inside still shines with virgin conveyor cleanliness, for others, time has left a seal of wear and corrosion. G-Energy Expert G 10W40 engine oil has been developed specifically to support old people and extend their life.

Product Description

This engine oil is semi-synthetic. Part of the G-energy Expert range of lubricants designed specifically for used vehicles. All specifications it is aimed just at maintaining old motors with great life experience.

Providing stable pressure in the system, it guarantees the best performance of such a motor. By creating a particularly strong oil film, significantly reducing friction, this oil prevents engine wear, reduces the risk of harmful deposits and maximizes engine life.

In motors, it is not metal that wears out first, but various seals. So this oil is compatible with any materials that are used to make them. It prevents them from wearing out prematurely, thereby reducing the risk of leaks.

Application area

As already mentioned, G-Energy expert G 10W40 engine oil was developed specifically for high mileage vehicles. It can be used in both gasoline and diesel engines, including those equipped with a turbocharger.

Suitable for cars and small trucks, SUVs, minibuses from various domestic and global manufacturers. Has recommendations for use from AvtoVAZ.

Graph of oil viscosity versus temperature environment

How 10W40 stands for

The product can be used at any time of the year, this is indicated by the letter W in its marking 10W40. The temperature range of this oil is from minus 30 (index 10 indicates this) to plus 40 (number 40 in the marking) degrees Celsius of the environment.

Advantages and disadvantages

G-Energy 10W-40 semi-synthetic engine oil has many advantages. And this is not only domestic production and an affordable price, which, of course, for many is a decisive factor when choosing a lubricant. Here are some other benefits of this product:

• an additive package designed specifically to maintain the functionality of a motor with very high mileage;
• stable pressure in the engine lubrication system;
• reducing the risk of leaks;
• compatibility with any sealing materials;
• especially strong oil film;
• effective protection of the engine against wear;
• extending the life of the motor.

The disadvantages include a limited scope - for cars with high mileage. And, of course, semi-synthetics are somewhat inferior in quality to pure synthetics. Reviews about this oil are mostly positive.

How to distinguish a fake

Fakes of G Energy 10W-40 engine oil have not been particularly noticed, but vigilance is never superfluous. When buying oil, you need to carefully inspect the canister. Here are the signs that the original oil should have:

• dense, but elastic plastic;
• ribbed cap, tightly fitting to the connecting ring;
• quality labels;
• information including the address of the plant, the article or a unique code on the label;
• mandatory listing of tolerances and specifications.

It is also worth checking the canister for leaks by turning it upside down. Squeeze from the sides - high-quality plastic is easily washed, but quickly returns to its original position. And be sure to ask the seller to show a quality certificate.

Motorists are accustomed to the fact that the highest quality oil is considered to be products that are made in Europe. However, Russian manufacturers have learned to make not only high-quality, but also cheap raw materials. Such an example is the G-Energy lubricant, which is produced by the well-known company Gazpromneft. And engine oil with a viscosity of 5w40 is deservedly considered one of the best in its class. It will be discussed in this article.

G-Energy engine oil

The plant that produces oils under the G-Energy trademark is located in Europe. The Italian city of Bari contains not only European flavor, but also the Gazprom Neft building. Every year, the plant produces more than 25,000 tons of products. It includes not only engine oils, but also transmission oils, as well as fluids for industrial equipment. G-Energy oils are considered among the best in the world. Their quality fully complies with ISO 9001 and 14001 standards, which are related to the management of the organization and the logistics system.

The company manufactures products for absolutely different conditions and engines:

• F Synth range: multigrade engine oils with different viscosities. Suitable for cars, trucks and buses. It has a modern set of additives, which allows machines to work even in difficult conditions and save fuel.
• Far east G-Energy: The company's latest development for the latest gasoline-powered engines. Has approvals for the most famous models of automakers.
• G-Energy with the designation S Synth: semi-synthetic oil, works with diesel engines.
• G Energy Expert: engine oil made from high quality base oils that provide excellent wear protection for engine parts with a thin oil film. Suitable for all season use.

Among all this variety, G-Energy 5w40 oil stands out. Reviews of a lubricant with such a viscosity are only positive. What characteristics does she have?

Oil 5w40: characteristics

G-Energy produces several types of oils with a viscosity of SAE 5W-40. The composition varies depending on the purpose of the liquid (synthetic or semi-synthetic). The main ones are expressed in terms of SAE. Marking 5W indicates frost resistance of the oil. The engine of the car will be able to start without problems both at -10 and at -20 degrees. At the same time, the number 40 also indicates the excellent performance of the oil in the heat up to +40 degrees.

G-Energy 5W-40 is all-weather, so it can be used in both hot and cold weather. This is facilitated by the special structure of the liquid, which adapts to environmental conditions. In the cold, it becomes less viscous, and in the heat - more dense. With such a lubricant, motorists are not afraid of any weather conditions. The oil differs not only in high quality, but also in the almost complete absence of fakes. When buying liquid at official gas stations of Gazpromneft, you can be sure of the quality of the oil.

What do car owners say about a synthetic product?

Reviews of G-Energy 5w40 oil (synthetics) are mostly positive. Motorists note the reasonable cost and good performance of the fluid. The oil is made on a fully synthetic basis, as evidenced by the F-synth marking in the name. In addition to the possibility of all-weather use, G-Energy F Synth 5w40 has other characteristics:

• engine protection during city driving (acceleration-stop);
• suitable for the most modern engines;
• has excellent detergent and anti-wear properties that prolong the life of the engine and help avoid breakdowns;
• extended replacement interval;
• effective cooling of the engine in the heat and in case of overheating;
• contributes to the long-term operation of the catalyst.

G-Energy 5w40 reviews also note quieter and smoother engine operation. Only experienced motorists are advised to replace it every 8-9 thousand kilometers. But according to the tests of the Gazprom Neft employees themselves, it has been proven that the oil does not lose its properties even with a run of 20 thousand kilometers. There are also products on a semi-synthetic basis in the G-Energy 5w40 line.

Opinions on a semi-synthetic product

Made on the basis of semi-synthetic components, G-Energy oil, according to motorists, is no less popular. The reason for this is all the same characteristics: all-weather, quality and price. The fluid is suitable for various purposes - it can be used in cars, trucks and small buses. The only problem you may have to face is faster oil wear.

Semi-synthetic oils have to be monitored more carefully so as not to miss the moment when they need to be replaced. Otherwise, they have excellent qualities, which you can find out by reading the reviews about G-Energy 5w40:

• does not allow parts to oxidize and prevents the formation of an alkaline deposit on engine parts;
• equally suitable for heat and cold;
• high detergent qualities clean the engine from pollution;
• reduces the likelihood of leakage due to compatibility with seal materials;
• protects the engine during operation.

G-Energy offers an extensive range of motor oils, including lubricants for passenger cars with a diesel engine, two-stroke engines, including high-powered ones, as well as sports cars and racing cars.

High-quality oil forms a stable film on the internal parts of the motor, reducing the likelihood of premature wear; removes heat and neutralizes residues of combustion products; reduces the possibility of corrosive processes and prevents the appearance of sludge deposits.

For modern "passenger cars" of American, Asian and European production, the manufacturer G-Energy has developed a line of G-Energy motor oils. These synthetic and semi-synthetic lubricants are designed for gasoline and diesel engines of passenger cars and contain a specially selected composition of additives.

Thanks to such mixtures, the motor works stably and reliably both on a high-speed highway or highway, and in difficult urban traffic. For example, G-Energy Far East 5W-20 oil has enhanced anti-wear properties, reduces the likelihood of blocking oil channels and prevents the build-up of soot and varnish on engine elements, and also contributes to fuel economy. G-Energy F Synth 5W-30 automotive engine oil retains its performance characteristics for the longest possible time and has excellent detergent properties, which helps keep engine components clean. Thus, properly selected oil increases the life of the car and minimizes the possibility of an early breakdown.

Recently appeared on the shelves brand called G-Energy belongs to the Russian concern Gazpromneft. The design of the product was developed by a famous Italian atelier and embodies power, the strength of a leader, innovative technologies, speed and dynamics of technology.

Drivers' opinions

Kirill, Volkswagen Passat

Before the planned replacement, I decided to experiment and take synthetics with a viscosity of 5W40 so that the temperature range of operation is within the range from -30 to + 35. A friend who also has a Volkswagen advised G-Energy. Moreover, there are no fakes in stores for it, in comparison with the eminent Motul and Shell. In four months I have driven about four thousand kilometers. During this time, the oil became quite dark, but I think this is normal, since it should darken if it cleans the insides of the motor. Frosts this winter reached 34 degrees, the grease did not freeze in such a cold, and its pressure sensor goes out after the plant almost instantly. In terms of quality, it suits me perfectly.

Now about the negative points. In September 2016, I took a four-liter canister for one and a half thousand. Synthetics of the same viscosity from Mobile and Shell cost much more. Last February, I looked in the store how much it costs, and was upset: its price tag rose to 1800 rubles. for the canister. It can be assumed that due to the rise in price of the ruble against the dollar, oil has risen in price, but I paid attention to the cost of Mobil Super 3000, it has become cheaper than Gazprom's oil. Thus, the product will become more expensive than branded lubricants.

Michael, Mitsubishi Outlander

I refueled the Outlander XL, and immediately I got the feeling that a diesel engine was stuck under the hood, hydraulic lifters thundered. I thought: I'll go - it will be better. But after two hundred kilometers, nothing has changed. Didn't stand it, leaked it. Refueled Mobile Super, the engine immediately began to work quieter.

Andrew, Honda Stream

I saw this oil in the store, I liked the price. I read the reviews - more positive. Bought. Departure three oil changes, about forty thousand. The level does not decrease, the car starts up in the cold, as if warmed up, the camshaft is visible through the filler cap a little, there is a slight coating on it, but not varnish or coke. At first it seemed that the exhaust smelled of burnt oil, but then it passed, maybe it dripped somewhere in the wrong place when filling.

George, Lada Kalina

First, G-Energy was filled in by my brother in Lada 2113, his mileage was about 150,000 km at that time. Filled in the service from a two-hundred-liter barrel. Now he hits somewhere under 200,000 km. The oil does not burn, and the engine is washed inside, it changes the lubricating fluid after 10,000 km. I looked at him, poured myself into Kalina. I also do not burn, everything is fine, everything suits, especially the price. The quality is probably better than Lukoil. Before that I tried Agip and Mobil 3000, but they are very expensive.

Eugene, Lada Priora

I poured G-Energy into the sixteen-valve Priora, before it was Shell Helix Ultra. There are no changes in gasoline consumption, but the engine has become softer, the ringing of compensators has disappeared, and there is less burning compared to Shell.

Peter, Lada Granta

At zero MOT, at 3000 km, they filled it in at the dealer, on their own advice. After filling the engine began to run smoother. I have driven 7000 km on it so far, there are no negative feelings, it behaves normally. The filler cap is clean, what you can see inside is also clean. In my opinion, the best quality-price ratio. Previously, I filled in Mobile 3000, there were no problems either, I will hope that this will not let you down either. At 15 thousand they will open the valve cover, so we'll see.

Ivan, Lada Largus

I work in a taxi in my car. Before that, I filled in imported, but switched to Gazprom because of the high cost of imported ones, I have to change the oil every month, if not more often. I noticed when replacing that this fluid is even cleaner. And in cold weather, it does not cause any complaints.

Anton, Fiat Punto

I got an old Fiat from relatives. About three years ago I started buying G-Energy. The quality is satisfactory and the price is reasonable.

Outcome

Opinions about this oil on the Internet are completely different, someone praises, someone vice versa. But in general, we can say that its quality is at a decent level.

Sergey, Gaz Gazelle

I work at the service station. Leaves about a barrel in 30 days. The last barrel of oil leaves much to be desired, coking.

Rustam, Toyota Corolla

Together with my comrades, we decided to try G-Energy engine oil for our Japanese cars. It fit perfectly, the positive effect of its use was immediately noticeable. I see no reason to overpay for expensive brands.

Marat, Hyundai Accent

I bought oil from Gazpromneft, drove a couple of thousand so far. In general, the car began to work quieter, you can no longer hear how the hydraulic lifters make noise, there is traction.

Danila, Toyota Camry

It's time to change the lubricant. I came to the service, I tell me this is what I need, which I used to fill in. In response, I hear from the manager that we don’t have such a thing, you can try G Energy - everyone likes it.

I had to agree to the test for lack of choice. After the replacement, I did not recognize my iron horse, the feeling is that horses were added under the hood, it began to fly straight on the track. I am very glad.

Anton, Vaz Priora

In my car there is a problem with the propulsion system, the motor has an amazing appetite for oil. Previously, I used Mobile - I ate a liter a month, after switching to G-Energy, I also began to eat a liter, but already a week. One disappointment. I'm switching to Bardahl.

Denis, Renault Logan

My family has several cars. Some time ago, on the recommendations of the sellers, they filled in the G Energy lubricant, and I still like it. There are no problems with it, I don’t even add it until the replacement.

The price is attractive, which is especially important at this time and for me in particular. An excellent combination of product cost and quality characteristics of the lubricant.

Now I use only it and pour it into all the cars of the family. The oil is really good, but you need to take into account the specifics of choosing the right lubricant for the required brand of car.

Oksana, Toyota Echo

More on the topic: Mobil 1 0W-20 oil reviews

I got my car in 2007. Since then, I have been trying to find the right lubricant for my car. It does not work. When I come back for maintenance, the mechanic is always dissatisfied.

He says that the level is decreasing at a frantic pace, a lot of soot is formed, and the oil is generally incorrectly selected. That's the turn and Energy, having traveled for a year, returned to MOT. Everything went smoothly, I am satisfied and the mechanic.

Vanya, Skoda Octavia

Again, something is pushed from above. Gazprom's slogan simply kills. Haven't tried it and don't intend to.

Maxim, VAZ 2109

I use semi-synthetics G-Energy Expert 10w40. My motor is delighted, the lubricant goes well with it. Never topped up.

Before that, I used cheap Lukoil, the engine just roared, I even thought that it would explode or fall apart. As for Energy, it is a little more expensive, but fully justifies itself.

Pavel, Hyundai Accent

For my Korean car, this is what you need. I have been filling it for more than 3 years, I am very pleased with both the quality characteristics of the lubricant, and the cost and consumption. Much better than other oils, which are not only more expensive, but also inferior in quality.

Igor, VAZ 21099

I am satisfied with the oil, I have repeatedly poured semi-synthetics Expect G 10W-40. It does not darken, I practically do not top up.

The machine is certainly old, but I see no reason to buy expensive oils. It's just money down the drain. Therefore, I use Energy from Gazpromneft, and it meets the price-quality criterion at the proper level.

Denis, Toyota Avensis

The mileage on my car is already quite impressive, more than 200 thousand km. I bought it from scratch, but I didn’t go to dealers - they ask for too much money. Newly filled with G Energy with a bias under the Japanese cars.

More than 5 years have passed, and the level is kept from replacement to replacement. The most important thing is to choose the right engine oil, in addition, Energy lubricants have a fairly wide range of products and specific applications.

Ali, Lexus LX 570

I like oil. I recently purchased a new Lexus and from the first replacement I fill in Energy. Already clocked over 100 thousand km, everything works stably.

All my friends also use this oil. I recommend for the use of cars of Korean and Japanese brands G-Energy FAR EAST 5W-30 API SM. The quality is excellent.

Vladislav, Toyota

More on the topic: Syntec engine oil reviews

I bought Energy for a long time and did not know any problems with the car, but lately something seems to have happened to him. I filled it in, and over time it darkened over the service life, this seems to be the norm. In my opinion, the quality of additives and their composition are at a good level.

I will only say one thing - it is better to fill in motor oils from Gazpromneft on older cars, but it is better not to use new ones with high-tech engines. Previously, I could recommend it, it really was of high quality.

But the last moment that made me change my mind was the words of my friend. He is engaged in the sale of oils and not to believe him, at least, is stupid. He claims that 20 percent is real quality, and the remaining 80, that is, the majority, is the most real fake. Disappointed.

Evgen, Audi 80

Gee is a cool oil, today even at minus 26 my swallow started up easily, and the engine did not even feel this cold.

Nail, Fiat Albea

The Gazprom company is again zombifying the people, only oil made on a mineral basis or simply mineral water can be poured onto the rx8.

It is important to know that if the grease does not darken for a long time, but this should alert. It is hard to believe that people whose engine has slipped the value of 200 thousand km in this oil are fine.

pommeoo05, Toyota Hayes

In my subjective opinion, Gee is not inferior to lubricants from leading manufacturers and may well compete with them. Ideal for light vehicles. Thanks to the created complex of specialized additives, the oil is very resistant to adverse factors.

It is able to provide a safe start in the winter. It is worth noting both the soft operation of the engine and the reduction in noise performance during its operation. Excellent lubricant.

Rufina, Toyota Caldina

For me, this oil was a discovery and a sensation at the same time. For the price, I immediately liked it, unlike analogues. The quality is also okay. At first I was cowardly when they first offered to fill in the service station, as I remember the reviews I read the other day on the internet. The statements there are wrong, G-Energy is a good product.

Kirill, 32, Nissan Juke
