Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or OEM Toyota
I value peace of mind and the price difference isn’t noticeable long-term,so I run LiquiMoly leichtlauf. I figure German cars get German oil as they probably design it to their own German standards.
I know leichtlauf is the best from them, meets the highest standards for German vehicles and is tested very stringently, so for performance I’d stick with that.
I use 5w30, liqui moly toptec 4200. It meets VW504 standard and API SP.
On 0w16 the engine is smoother, more responsive, quieter and consuming about 0.2L to 0.5L less fuel per 100 km.
Just noticing on my receipt from a local indy that services all Euros (but a lot porsches) that they put in 5w40 LiquiMoly.
Toyota OEM oil is very high quality stuff with lots of wonderful additives that are good for a long lasting engine.
That being said, i use Liqui Moly 5W40 Leichtlauf High Tech. Unless you're in Canada or something i think you should use 5W40.
I found the Honda certification number recently but cannot recall where (I\u2019m trying though and will update if I do). \nI wonder if the green VW508 is LiquiMoly? Their oil(s) are green. And, LiquiMoly New Gen is what I settled on for my FL5.
Definitely not the right one, as has been said. Liqui Moly TopTec 0-30 is what I use in my ‘24 Audi RS3
All in all, that engine oil is expensive, holy liqui moly
Moved to LM and my car burns 1L every 1500miles or so. Also was having a weird shudder for few seconds about 15seconds after cold start
