Scheduled oil change and how I suffered with the filter - Toyota Corolla Runx, 1.8 liter, 2001

... 08/20/2010 I received oil ordered by Toyota 5w-30 ... I waited two weeks ...

Why exactly is this…

... there was a Motul 5w-30 option, it was the first thing I wanted to fill in, but after reading on the forums about Motul, I changed my mind about pouring it ...

Having abandoned Motul, I chose Mobile 5w-40 (because the mobile does not have 5w-30), but at the last moment I changed my mind ...

…I took the Toyota again…

Let me tell you how I changed...

I changed it myself because I wanted to drain the old oil from the engine more ...

On Friday evening, I arrived at the garage, having driven the car into the pit, I remembered that I had no place to drain the old oil, because. the last time I threw out the container ...
There were plastic bottles in the garage, cutting off the neck climbed down ...

I won’t tell you how the bottles shrank from the hot oil, how I burned my hands and how about a liter merged into the pit ...

the most interesting thing is unscrewing the filter, I spent about an hour on it ...
A hammer and a screwdriver helped ...

while I was unscrewing the filter, the oil ran away, and I put the box on P and began to rock the car so that the oil that remained on the pan would also pour out ...

having pumped up, I left the car for the night, so that I could run away more ...

about 200 grams escaped overnight ...
in the morning I shook it again, it ran out a little more ...
After all, I twisted the filter, screwed the cork on the pan and filled in all the oil ...
Of course, not the maximum, but about 4.2 liters according to those passports ... 200 grams was not enough to the maximum ...

honestly now I felt the difference between the old oil and the new ...

I think the gas mileage has gone down...

Or maybe I think...

I also wanted to photograph the dipstick every thousand to see how much oil it eats, but with a flash, the dipstick shines and nothing is visible ...

Well, then I would have changed at 10 thousand.

Yes, and took a piece of iron through friends brought with Yapi Toyota!

Iyrec 22.01.22

hmm…a serious statement…I think that motul is no worse than the original. Or you can buy Toyota original in metal. bank...

Their oils are different!
We have everything.
Oil loses its properties about 5 thousand kilometers!
That's why I'm changing it!

I
Iyrec 22.01.22

Nonsense, why then do the officials change after 10 thousand?

I
Ivanovnvkz 22.01.22

Yes, we have a chain engine, it’s better not to drive on oil for a long time!

I
Iyrec 22.01.22

Che is often like that ...

I
Ivanovnvkz 22.01.22

I change every 5k

I
Iyrec 22.01.22

8-10 thousand

I
Ivanovnvkz 22.01.22

I want to take another liter to top up to the maximum and see!
I have the same thing somewhere!

And how often do you change the oil?

I
Iyrec 22.01.22

and I fill it to the maximum. and I look. at the next change, the oil reaches a level between the maximum and minimum. middle I think it's normal and don't worry.

I now want to see how this Toyota behaves!

It was just that the oil on the steamer floated towards me, from the yapi!

I took it from trusted people!

yes we do too :)

oil norms, the opening of motors using this oil showed "everything is perfectly clean and there is no soot and contamination" here :)

when you take the oil, look for the date of bottling and the date of packaging, if the date difference is 1-2 months, then don’t buy it;)
and change every 5 thousand in summer and 6-7 in winter, provided that you don’t tumble

I
Ivanovnvkz 22.01.22

Well, how do you like the oil?
We have 95% oil that in the city of Novokuznetsk everything is fake!
It looks like they found a waste pit!
And we have the same gas!
In Novosibirsk, gasoline is 2 times better!

Unclear!

yakov 22.01.22

buddy, what are you doing? ? ?
how is it that the mobile does not have 5v30? ? ?
mobil 5w30 lil all the time and many pour it, it is Toyota ORIGINAL

I
Ivanovnvkz 22.01.22

Yes, I know that does not produce!
It's just that Toyota itself recommends such oil!

Toyota itself does not produce oil either.

I only fill in the original Mobil 1 5W-30 ESP oil, it costs 2 times more than the usual 5W-30 (55 euros), it is changed every 7 thousand. Excellent oil! + filter put Simota with magnets and better filtering properties, change every 3 oil changes. Let's see it after the first change.
As the machine arrived, the original Mobil 1 0W-40 was also filled in, after changing to the ESP, the sound of the engine became quieter, more pleasant. So I advise!

The first time when I just bought a car and changed the oil, they gave me a small one and the next time I took a big one ...

TOTAL:

I
Ivanovnvkz 22.01.22

And how are they different?

y
yakov 22.01.22

well, just in case, I’ll say :)
it fits 110 but in 2zz you need 113

I
Ivanovnvkz 22.01.22

I don’t know, I took the original for the winter ...
And I threw out the box, I can’t say anything, but I looked, with a double, it’s very different ...
