Hi Guy,
I've got a short question.
I'm currently using 5w30 oil *full synth* from the local Toyota dealer. Works fine, but I've done around 4000 km and I want to change my oil. I have a 5L full synth quality brand 0W40 oil here. Is that too thin in summer conditions? I'm using the FTE (completely stock) with granny style driving and for short distances mostly (<10km ) during the week. Weekends are more mileage
Marco.
Make: toyota starlet
Model: glanza v ep91
Year: 1997
Engine size/type: 1.3 turbo
Any mods: full hks exhaust, plugs, trd leads
Type of use: fast road use
Additional info: 160k km, using cartrol magnetic 10w 40?
I doubt the oil is a genuine synthetic, more likely to be the hydrocracked mineral oil variety. With regular changes will be ok.
Comma oil are pretty cheap and chearfull, can give me any more info on the gear oil as in the specs it meets API GL? etc you will find them written on the tub somewhere.
Cheers
Guy.
