Oil question

[AygoTRD]

I am looking to change my oil and purchased fully synthetic 5w-30 oil with an acea rating of c2 but I'm not sure what this acea rating means so is this the correct oil?

My aygo is a 2013 petrol

As far as I'm aware ACEA C2 is rating for engines fitted with a catalyst.

So it wouldn't be suitable then?

 ACEA is the name of the body that set/specify the correct grading if oils.

C2 denotes the oil is for a diesel engined car with a diesel particulate filter that requires a Low saturated ash content in the oil.

Your 2013 Aygo runs on 0W20 as its preffered grade as specified by Toyota 5w30 can be used but it is thicker and will increase drag/friction in the engine resulting in lower fuel economy
