Engine oil OEM Toyota or MOTUL
prietenii mei... baga motul cu certificarea aferenta, ziceau ca e o idee mai silentios motorul.
However my "go to" oil in the last two oil changes was the Motul Specific 508 00 509 00 0W-20.
Last change , used Motul 8100 0W - 20 Full synthetic
Motul 8100 X Clean 5W30, used by reputable specialist Mini garages here in the UK and is in my 2018 JCW.
For such a climate as Mexico I'd stay away from 0w-20 and go at least to 0w-30 or 5w-30, last one being the OEM afaik.
Tbf my specialized mechanic put 5w-40 LL-04 Motul in mine for years and it's been blissful.
Motul gamit ko ramdam ko ang arangkada at tahimik makina.
Shell Advance Scooter naman d ko ramdam yung arangkada nya kasi medyo may delay at ambilis mag bawas ng langis. Unlike sa motul na low oil consumption lang sya d sya ganun kalakas mag bawas ng langis.
The one that seems to have made the greatest difference (non-tracking) is the one referenced below in either 5w50, 5w40, or the two of them mixed together. Per the relevant gauges, the 996 runs a bit cooler and the viscosity (via oil pressure readings across running temperatures and times) stays higher.
OEM oil is made by cheapest bidder who was able to fill the minimum requirements by the already cheapskate GM.
my 2 cents - use MOTUL DEXOS 2 SPECIFIC. Or some other premium oil. Oil is the most important fluid your car has. Cheaping out on it just stupid.
I have been running Motul 5w30 Xclean EFE and have used Pennzoil Ultra Platinum as well.
2000s Toyotas. Not really unreliable, but oil burning was an issue on most of these because people did not change the oil on time.
