Hello guys,
Just about to change oil.
I have honda city, idsi, 2006, 57000 km driven, on petrol, city drive mostly for 15-20km max daily, occasionally driven out of city for around 300 km.
Previous oil history of 1 year only, l.
previous owner used zic hiflo 20w50, I switched to castrol magnatec 5w30 ( two drains) for winters and now castrol magnatec 10w40 for summers (once and currently in). I am thinking to use one type of grade oil for whole year.
In summers, here temp goes to 50?C +
As foe as engine health is concerned.
2 mechanics say, its engine is affected and soon u might had to replace it ( they listen a typical sound under hood during revving the engine n place their judgment), though the engine, doesn't reduce oil, and is water dropping, and no smoke. Anyways I will get the engine checked from few more mechanics and get done some proper tests from some reputable auto shop before coming to any conclusion.
But this engine health concern also stops me to use thinner and fully synthetic 5w40 oil.
any suggestions plz.
