Quick Reference
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Viscosity | 5W-30 |
| PSA Standard | PSA B71 2312 / ACEA C2 |

| Oil Filter | Peugeot 1109.CK |
| Normal Interval | 12000 miles or 1 year |
Why PSA B71 2312 Is Non-Negotiable
The EB2ADTS PureTech 130 combines a turbocharged 3-cylinder with a wet timing belt — a design that runs the belt directly in oil rather than in a dry belt enclosure. This delivers packaging efficiency and reduced friction, but requires an oil formulation that does not chemically attack the belt’s rubber compounds. PSA B71 2312 is validated specifically for wet-belt PureTech engines. The ACEA C2 low-SAPS classification also protects the gasoline particulate filter (GPF) required on this Euro 6d-compliant engine.
Using incorrect oil will:
- ❌ Dissolve the timing belt’s elastomer, causing rapid wear and potential catastrophic failure
- ❌ Deposit ash in the GPF, triggering warning lights and expensive filter replacement
- ❌ Cause abnormal oil consumption in this small-displacement turbocharged engine

Verify the label shows PSA B71 2312 — this is Peugeot’s own approved specification code. ACEA C2 alone is a useful check but PSA B71 2312 is the definitive requirement.
Severe Service Check
You need the 6000-mile interval if you:
- Drive predominantly short urban trips under 5 miles
- Frequently use the vehicle in stop-and-go city traffic
- Experience repeated cold starts in winter below 23°F (−5°C)
- Drive on unpaved or dusty roads regularly

Pro Tip: The 308’s PureTech 130 shares the same wet-belt EB2ADTS architecture as the 208 and C3. The oil filter is accessed from above in the engine bay — no underbody access is required, making DIY oil changes practical even without a lift.
FAQs
What oil does a 2022 Peugeot 308 1.2 PureTech 130 take?
5W-30 full synthetic oil meeting PSA B71 2312 and ACEA C2.
How many quarts does it need?
4.0 quarts with a new filter, 3.7 without.
Can I use 5W-30 that isn’t PSA B71 2312 approved?
No. This engine requires the specific chemistry validated by PSA B71 2312 for wet-belt and GPF compatibility. A generic ACEA C3 5W-30 has different additive chemistry and is not a safe substitute.
Is the 130 hp PureTech different from the 110 hp version?
They share the same EB2ADTS block and wet-belt design. Oil specifications are identical — PSA B71 2312 / ACEA C2 / 5W-30.
How often should I change the oil?
Every 12,000 miles or 1 year under normal conditions. Every 6,000 miles for short-trip or urban driving.
