What Type of Engine Oil is Best for Toyota Vios?
1 Answers
It is recommended to use engine oil with a viscosity of 5W-30 for the Toyota Vios, with an approximate consumption of 4 liters. Currently, the mainstream engine oil brands include Mobil, Castrol, Shell, and Dusso Lubricants. Below are some methods to distinguish between good and bad engine oil: 1. Check the packaging appearance. Genuine oil has a one-time-use cap, with a sealing tin foil at the notch, which bears the manufacturer's special mark. If these features are absent, it might be counterfeit oil. To prevent counterfeiting, genuine oil has special marks on inconspicuous areas such as the label sticker, bottom of the can, inside of the can lid, and handle. If counterfeiters customize packaging for fake oil, a simple comparison between genuine and fake packaging can reveal the difference. 2. Observe the oil quality. Genuine oil is light in color, transparent, free of impurities, suspended particles, or sediment, and flows well when shaken. Counterfeit oil may be darker in color, contain impurities or sediment, have a strong or irritating odor, flow poorly when shaken, or exhibit a stringy texture when touched.
