advice needed on engine oil

[cowboy_779]

hi every1.i need u ppl's suggestion...through out,i have been using caltex havoline 10w-30 in my khyber 98..but during this summer ,i used caltex mobile oil 20w-50 ....as the winters r coming....i m planning to switch back to caltex havoline 10w-30...the car has done 127500 kms original engine nt overhauled ....do u thnk that i should go for 10w-30 or use some other oil wich is in b/w these two in terms of viscosity....


thanx

both are non synthetic,
i dont see any harm in the switch

@hash4u
ya there is no harm but 20w-50 is much viscous so winter mein engine temperature low hota hai koi masla to nhi...aur meri gari kafi chal gai hai is liyay 10w-30 use karna sahi rahay ga ..???

Dont worry.
this is a wise decision
I also do the same.
i use 20-50W in summer and 10-30W in winters.

i want to tell u n all other people that dont ever use oil zic A or zic A+......these oil r very dangerous coz they r thin as like water they r only for zero meter car but they also harm these car..... i suggest to use total quartz 5000.... i think its a best oil as i m using in two carz honda beat n handa civic both r in perfect engine.......

^i also agree.

i think that you should never go from more viscous to less viscous oil.

@8888 n jazzy77
bro i bought this car zero meter n i still have the manual wid me ...n its written on the manual that during summers use 20-50w n in winters 10-30w....and i agree wid u zic is really thin...but caltex havoline formula wid red label is a really gud oil as compared to xic..wat do u say???
