Should I choose 0w20 or 5w20 for Corolla?
1 Answers
Whether to choose 0w20 or 5w20 engine oil for Corolla mainly depends on the vehicle's usage environment: 1. If you are in the northern region with colder weather, 0w20 engine oil is recommended. 0w20 oil has better low-temperature fluidity and cold resistance than 5w20. 2. If you are in the milder climate of the southern region, 5w20 is completely sufficient. Here is some relevant information about engine oil: 1. The number before W represents the oil's cold resistance. For example, 0W oil will freeze at -35°C, while 5W oil will freeze at -30°C. 2. The low-viscosity grades of engine oil are 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, and 25W. The smaller the number, the better the low-temperature cold start performance. The viscosity grades at 100°C are 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60, with higher numbers indicating higher viscosity.
