operation — Toyota Camry Gracia, 2.2 liter, 1997
Having driven on 10/30 oil at 3500 engine speeds for quite a long time (145 km / h), I heard some unpleasant sound from under the hood in the parking lot. Opening the hood, the sound was localized in the camshaft / valve area. Because Earlier (on …/40 oils) this was not observed, I decided to switch back to Statoil oil with a viscosity of 10/40 in summer and 5/40 in winter.
Mileage: 183.000 km
Now I'm switching to Ravenol VSI 5W40. This oil is the leader in low-temperature fluidity of 5/40 oils (Statoil 5/40 took the last place out of 6 ...)
You can pour 50 thousand after 100 thousand, 400 motors, although they run, but should not :)
Well, this option is being considered ... Tyram to 400 ... So far, 5/40 will do quite well. And under 50, the gaps should be close to critical development ...
can i be smarter now? OK? ))
I have been driving S-series engines for a long time and through trial and error, I think the 5W50 mobile is the best choice for an old aspirated
engine.
Try it, I would pour it myself now, if it weren’t for the sleeve turbine.
By the way, the motor runs quieter on it, well, it seemed to me there
