I handed my 2005 1kd hilux to my son this year. It now has 480k klms on the clock. 3rd set of injectors and we have always used PENRITE 10/40. Absolutely love the stuff and your advice.
Changed my oil and filter this week used the penrite Glad you recommended it Although prior to the service the oil went black on the stick usually hard to read and clean 1st time in 5 years this has happened to the oil used the nulon oil last service haven't had this happen before is there anything I should be concerned about ?
Nice flex on that extra clean oil! I have an old 1kz and the oil turns black pretty quick after a change. The engine is new to me and is a bit of a mess. Plan to block egr and clean intake if necessary. Doing the injectors and glow plugs next week and will also check compression then. Thanks for all the videos and sharing information.
In my country there's mostly Toyota oil, Mobil 1 and Liquimoly and then some Japanese brands i do not know. Always use 5W-40 as temps fluctuate between - 40 to +40 Celsius. My engine did 130k, no oil is eaten in one way or another. I'm impressed.
Can you use a thinner oil in winter like the 5/30 thy recommend then in summer change it for thicker like a 15w40 or is it best to just stick to 1 grade oil throughout the year I'd appreciate your advice thanks
I have a Toyota Yaris 2013 model with petrol engine here in the UK. The problem is the metal flat dipstick, it always shows different levels on each side, so how are we supposed to know which is the actual level. One side up to the full mark, but the other side about halfway between full and minimum mark
Quick question how long does it take for the oil to drain from the oil filter? If I wait 5 min to check my oil level after the engine is warm or hot does any of the oil drain down to the sump or it stays in the oil filter.
As well as the viscosity of the oil Toyota also recommend the ACEA rating of the oil, for my Prado J150 it's C2, apparently it can damage the three-way cat, DPF or EGR if you use the wrong ACEA code. ACEA is a European standard, not sure what Australia or the US use. Any thoughts on this?
Is there a an overfilled level above top mark that causes the crankshaft to hit the oil level and cause “froth”. I understand froth is bad news. Has anyone ever seen this happen? I’m not sure where I picked this info up from and it’s been a bit of a mystery.
@@mohamedalihebboul2214 Sorry, I don’t follow? I think you said you never heard about oil frothing from crankshaft hitting way too higher oil level? But didn’t understand what KM means?
Depends on how hot it is. If it´s above +35c you should use a 40 weight oil. Most truckers use 40 or 50 weight oils to handle the heat and hard driving.
My oil stays clean like that for about 7-8000k then it slowly darkens My egr is disconnected and when I change my oil I run cheap oil through the motor after draining old oil out just to clean out most of the dirty oil maybe 3-4 litres then the new oil stays clean for ages even at 10,000km you can still see the dipstick through the oil so the oil never goes black like most motors
Sorry guys, penrite is a good Australian oil but Valvoline is a better oil as it's a global brand. If you use Valvoline synpower FE you don't burn oil you get good fuel economy and the book states it's good to use 5w30 over the whole climate range I think from memory the was only 10° different on the hot side between 30 and 50 grade oils no difference on the 40 grade I used Valvoline FE for 200k in my Hilux and often met the fuel consumption stated. I also don't think overfilling oil by any measurement is good for any reason I only ever put 6.9l in no more no less if it's between the dots that's the safest range that's what I stick to if you go above the top line it can increase crank case pressure and your using more oil so it cost more or in your case you service a few cars a week that's less services you can do on the same amount of oil and you'd buy in bulk say 250+ litres at 0.5 litres more then required you do the math but it's 2x services per litre
@@Fourby4Diesel yeah but did they use the correct Valvoline the specific diesel oil is 15w40 and it's not full synthetic while it is cheaper, you get what you pay for. You know how the 1vd diesel was notorious for consuming oil in some cases customers where only getting 8k km before the oil level warming light would come on by switching to Valvoline FE 5w30 the customer made the 10k interval and the oil level only dropped maybe 0.5 of a litre but yeah I respect the work that you guys do but being a mechanic myself some youtube videos blow my mind and this is supposed to be educational for DIYers it's scary at the end of the day telling people to exceed the max level is not good information, but the other stuff 👍 especially the injector information 👍👍
Penrite in all our vehicles, Antony knows👍😉
Details and details, even with a simple oil change video. Thanks Anthony
I only use Penrite HPR 10W-40 in the hilux and landcruiser. Big fan of Penrite. Thanks Anthony for confirming I'm on a good thing.
great information! Anthony, about to do my first oil change on my first diesel tomorrow anyway learning heaps! thanks again bud.........

Wouldn't use penrite even if it was for free
I really struggle getting an accurate reading on the dipstick.
And tips or tricks please?
HEEEELLLPPP.
Iv used most brands. Gulf western seemed to stay clean the longest, using nulon 5w40 cause it was 50 bucks cheaper, CJ spec vs penrite CI
Changed my oil and filter this week used the penrite
Glad you recommended it
Although prior to the service the oil went black on the stick usually hard to read and clean

1kz requires oil change every 5000 km
Thanks for all the great vids. Do you use the Penrite ENGINE FLUSH when you change your oil?

What oil would you recommend for the 2KD-FTV turbo?
Thanks mate
Kaon is great Anthony

How many km’s you leaving it before a change. Hwy mostly ?

Anthony have you thought about doing or starting a Podcast Brother… Awesome Info as always..
just listen to this on headphones and call it a pod

Our European oils are what we call Low and Mid SAPS, less Sulphate Ash - Phosphor - Sulpher.
Oil, the lifeline for the vehicle.
I never have to add any oli between changes with 90k km so shes good 2go
Is there a an overfilled level above top mark that causes the crankshaft to hit the oil level and cause “froth”.
I understand froth is bad news.
Has anyone ever seen this happen?
I’m not sure where I picked this info up from and it’s been a bit of a mystery.
No never heared about, but still things are good when we respect KM
@@mohamedalihebboul2214 Sorry, I don’t follow?
I think you said you never heard about oil frothing from crankshaft hitting way too higher oil level?
But didn’t understand what KM means?
Bought a 2.7L petrol a few weeks ago. Dumped 5L of 5W-30. The dipstick on these Toyotas is impossible to read!!
what exact oil viscosity this engine use? manual say 5w-30 but people use 5w-40,10w-40,15w-40, even 15w-50
Depends on how hot it is. If it´s above +35c you should use a 40 weight oil. Most truckers use 40 or 50 weight oils to handle the heat and hard driving.
I am surprised about the wide range of viscosities the 1-2KD FTV can take.
Not very common thing on other engines.
Penrite jobs right👌👌
Penrite 10w 40 because it comes in 7lrts no checking 👍 Australian made
I have never seen any diesel oil that clean on the dipstick. Has the engine actualy been run since changing the oil? Please explain.
My oil stays clean like that for about 7-8000k then it slowly darkens
My egr is disconnected and when I change my oil I run cheap oil through the motor after draining old oil out just to clean out most of the dirty oil maybe 3-4 litres then the new oil stays clean for ages even at 10,000km you can still see the dipstick through the oil so the oil never goes black like most motors
It doesn't matter it stays clean because your EGR disconnected.
Anthony.. How many kms would you start using the 15/50 mines now done 180,000 and last couple been wondering when to change to the thicker oil.
Depends on climate and driving trip lengths
Never is likely
Dipstick 🤣👍✌️😎🇦🇺🍻
Amsoil 4 life
i swear by penrite oild for my cars, its the bees knees. but when it comes to the dirt bikes its motul all the way
Hey Anthony, lets see if we can get a bulk user discount from the fuel companies for using their product.😂😂 Don't like your chances with that.😅😅
Anyone 5w40
Yes Mobil 1 Delvac.
@@sunilparas6606 Lukoil lux 5-40👍
I use penrite 5w40 full synthetic. Suits Adelaide weather better. Engine runs 👌
