AMSOIL Signature Series 100% Synthetic Motor Oil | Advanced Protection
Advanced Motor Oil Technology
AMSOIL was founded on innovation, beginning with our introduction of the world’s first API-qualified synthetic motor oil. By ignoring commonly accepted limitations and refusing to stop short of success, we set a new benchmark for lubricant performance. These same principles continue to guide our product development, resulting in Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil.
Signature Series is not only the best oil we have ever made, it’s also better than any competitor oil we have tested. Some may claim that Signature Series is over-engineered. Perfect. It’s not for everyone. It’s for those who want the absolute best engine protection — and it delivers.

Proven Performance Through Independent Testing
75% More Engine Protection Against Wear
Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil develops a strong fluid film that keeps metal surfaces separated. Its robust anti-wear additives further reduce wear in metal-to-metal contact regions for maximum engine life.
In the Sequence IVA Engine Test, which simulates extended periods of stop-and-go driving, AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-20 provided 75% more engine protection against horsepower loss and wear than required by the industry standard, extending the life of vital components like pistons and cams.
Test Results:
- Industry Standard: 90 μm average cam wear
- AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-20: 20.28 μm average cam wear
- 77% better wear protection than the standard requires
100% Protection Against Low-Speed Pre-Ignition (LSPI)
Modern turbocharged, direct-injection engines are prone to LSPI, which can cause catastrophic engine damage. Signature Series achieved 100% protection against LSPI in the engine test required by the GM dexos1 Gen 3 specification — zero occurrences were recorded throughout five consecutive tests.
Protects Turbochargers 72% Better
The tremendous heat and stress turbos create can cause some oils to break down and form harmful bearing deposits through turbo coking. In the GM Turbo Coking Test, Signature Series limited temperature increase to only 3.6%, protecting the turbocharger 72% better than required by the GM dexos1 Gen 3 specification.
50% More Detergents for Maximum Cleaning Power
AMSOIL Signature Series has 50% more detergents than AMSOIL OE Motor Oil to help keep oil passages clean and promote oil circulation. In the Sequence VG Engine Test, Signature Series kept the oil pick-up tube screen virtually free from sludge, providing 90% better protection against sludge.
For maximum cleaning when switching to Signature Series, consider using AMSOIL Engine Flush to remove deposits and ensure a clean start.
Extended Drain Intervals: Protection Guaranteed
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil provides reserve protection, allowing you to go longer between oil changes if you choose:
Normal Service
- Up to 25,000 miles (40,200 km)
- 700 hours of operation
- One year
- Whichever comes first
For personal vehicles not operating under severe service conditions.
Severe Service
- Up to 15,000 miles (24,140 km)
- 700 hours of operation
- One year
- Whichever comes first
Severe service conditions include commercial or fleet vehicles, excessive idling, frequent towing, hauling, plowing or driving in dusty conditions.
Important Notes:
- Modified engines (non-stock), racing vehicles and vehicles using alternative fuels (E85, CNG, propane, etc.) are excluded from extended drain interval recommendations
- Change at the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended drain interval outside U.S. and Canada
- AMSOIL Oil Filters are designed for extended drain intervals. Do not exceed 12,000 miles or one year with other brand filters
- Always change filter when changing oil
- Check oil regularly to maintain proper fill levels
Verify Your Extended Drain Intervals: Confirm your extended drain intervals are working with AMSOIL Oil Analysis Kits. Oil analysis provides scientific data about your oil’s condition and can help optimize drain intervals for your specific driving conditions.
