Excellent advice; The choice for a specific Motor Oil strongly depends on the climate you're in. Choose 5W50 in hotter areas and 5W40 or 5W30 in colder weather (the higher the second number, the better viscosity for protection), just as you take summer tires and winter tires. Secondly the ASEA indication like C2 or C3 is important and is depending on what your car manual says. Third you best choose full synth or at least Hydro Cracked (HC), but preferrably FULL SYNT, for the intervals are longer VS the HC-oils.
Hey i humbly request you to answer my questions I own VW polo TDI 1.2 2013 and engine running at 50k kms exact In india..In my city temperature can reach upto 47 48... And as low as 8 or 9 But i dont use my car much in summers. I dont drag my car...i dont want much performance... If a go somewhere i cruise at 80-90kmph max...i just demand some smoothness and mileage and longer life of engine so which engine oil i can use 5w30 or 5w40 vw suggest 507 00 / 505 01 so what would be better ? 2. When previously serviced at 42000km my mechanic uses 5w30..if i use 5w40(if you suggest ) this time wouldn't it effect my car ? Because even after drainage appx 500ml of previous oil still lefts...
The owners manual say´s which API rating and which Viscosity too use. GM and European cars specify which oils are recomended.....GM/Dexos - MB.......... FORD........... VOLVO.......VW......... RN...........
my car is changan Alsvin a Chinese brand which it was originally designed and manufactured in a colder country such as china in the manual it says 0w20 . but its market scope reaches to Philippines which is a country known to have hot temeperature weather. Is it wise to use 5w30 instead of 0w20?
في الاجواء الحارة ٥_٤٠ هو الافضل من ٥_٣٠ حسب مايكول صاحب الفيديو لكن استهلاك الوقود راح يزيد،، وكذلك عداد الكيلو متر يحكم في ذلك اذا كان المحرك ماشي فوق ١٠٠ الف كيلومتر يفضل استخدام ٥_٤٠

So 5w 40 for Spain in summer 5w 30 for UK all year round ? Hand book says 5w 30.
which is the best viscosity, right or wrong? you must concern the base oil group in lubricant.
Great help especially with the temperature ranges
Last time I checked temperature was measured in CELSIUS, not census.
Conventionally yes, but I measure temperature in cenpus.
Thanks for saving my time, That's all I needed to read.
I got confused :p, I googled wtf means degree census haha
Census is another term for Celsius.
The best explanation ❤
Nicely explained! 👍

Great and informative video thank you very much!!
I feel stupider for having watched this kindergarten krap.

Yes 5W30 is much better in hot climate. Or 5W40
@@timbacolod3275 Thank you so much
for the response
Please am in Africa Ghana my car requires acea c3/c4 which is 5w-30w synthetic can I use 5w-40w due to our temperature?
5w30 is more costly than 5w40?
i am in saudi arabia and my car is 'kia carnival 2012' - which one is better for my car - 5w40 or 5w30,,,,,

Which is the best grade for India during hot climate
10W50
Thanks
I guess a 5w30 could be used in Africa
This has to be an AI voice.. listen to the pronunciation of some words and terms 😂
Well done sherlock
Damn fool
So sick of these AI bot videos.
30 and 40 omg, splitting hairs.
It's not an issue at all, just in your head !
5w30 is better for mpg. 5w40 is better for high mileage. Get it?
@@chinaboss6683nope each oil is use depend on climates
Bot BS
No testing is just empty talk.🤡
