What kind of oil does a 2015 Can-Am DS 450 449 take?
The engine-oil viscosity shown for this model is 10W-40. The available oil-product listings include Formula 4-Stroke Power Sports Synthetic Motor Oil, 10W-40 Synthetic ATV/UTV Engine Oil. For a service, choose oil that meets the engine’s actual application requirements, not just a product name.
Why does four-stroke engine oil need the right application rating?
Engine oils use different additive packages and friction modifiers. Because some powersports engines use the same oil for both the engine and a wet clutch or transmission, you should match the manufacturer's specific requirements alongside the viscosity.
