Caltex Havoline products
Gasoline powered cars and trucks, recreational vehicles, equipment and fleets. From new to high-mileage engines, Havoline with Deposit Shield® Technology motor oils protects your most prized possession.
Engine oil plays a critical role in keeping your engine running smoothly. It lubricates moving parts to reduce friction, helps control engine temperature, helps protect against wear, protects against corrosion, and keeps the engine clean by minimizing deposits and sludge buildup.
There are three common categories of engine oil:
- Mineral oil – Derived from crude oil, suitable for older engines or light-duty use.
- Synthetic oil – Lab engineered for superior performance, offering better protection, cleanliness, and efficiency.
- Synthetic blend – A mix of mineral and synthetic oils, providing a balance of performance and value.
The right engine oil depends on your vehicle’s manufacturer recommendations, which you can find in your owner’s manual. Factors like engine type, driving conditions, climate, and mileage also play a role. Choosing the correct viscosity grade and oil specification helps provide the performance and protection intended by the vehicle manufacturer.
Havoline stands out through its proprietary Deposit Shield™ Technology. While standard oils focus primarily on lubrication, Havoline is specifically formulated to help protect against harmful carbon deposits, keep the engine clean and minimize deposit formation, help maintain engine cleanliness, which can support fuel economy and engine performance when used as recommended.
Caltex Havoline is backed by over a century of innovation and extensive testing.
Oil drain intervals vary considerably depending on vehicle design, oil type, operating conditions, and manufacturer recommendations. Typically, it ranges from every 5,000 to 10,000 km. However, always follow your vehicle manufacturer’s recommended service interval for the best results.
