Havoline (10w30) or Toyota Motor Oil Tin Pack (10w30) for Corolla?

[maliasghar]

Dear All,

Your recommendations on using Either Caltex Havoline Formula (10w30) or Imported Toyota Motor Oil Tin Pack (10w30) for new Corolla Altis?
I guess both these oils are mineral oils. Or is the Toyota Imported Oil semi-synthetic?

Mobil 1
5w-50 Fully Synthetic

I'd suggest the Toyota's 10W-30 in tin pack. It's a much better option but a little expensive. It'll set you back for PKR 3150. However, a better choice would be either Total 9000 5W-30 (PKR 2900) or Toyota's 5W-30 in tin pack (PKR 3650).
I was using Toyota's 10W-30 in my Altis, it performed exceptionally better than other 10W-30 oils. But when i switched to Total 9000 5W-30, engine noise improved a lot. Fuel average was already excellent on 10W-30 and it remained the same after switching to Total.
Total 9000 is manufactured in Singapore and it is fully synthetic. Hence it is a wise choice.

From the list I would go with havoline. Consider mobil 1 or zic xq.

Given that Toyota's oil costs 3650 (according to devilz_apprentice)I would suggest you to go for Havoline Synthetic 5W40 which in under 3000.

@devilz_apprentice

Any idea if TMO 10w30 imported is semi-synthetic oil?

Secondly is this Total 9000 readily available at Total Petrol pumps or is there a dealer in twin cities from where I can get a genuine pack?

@maliasghar,

Lubricants are available in 2 categories, Mineral & Synthetic.
If your car is new under 10,000kms stick with Toyota OEM mineral oil (local or imported depends upon your pocket). Moreover this will help you in case you have any warranty claim.
After 10,000kms you may shift to any synthetic brand you like.

Local oil marketing companies (PSO, Total, Caltex & Shell) now sell synthetic oil, frankly I trust these local companies rather than imported brands like Mobil, Zic, Micking, etc. which are repacked in Pakistan.

I have Altis 2010, I used Toyota oil upto 10,000kms and since then have been using Total 9000 without any complaint.
I drain the oil at 5000kms and install new Toyota original oil filter.

kindly dont talk about warranty, first word warranty is fraud and secondly what can possibly go wrong with a brand new car.

lets suppose you did not used toyata oil and something goes wrong with the engine. then how do you expect toyata to prove that you not been using their product.

and what if you been using toyata's genuine oil and something goes wrong, do you think they will entertain you from warranty.

Brother its only better if you have a Corvette or 360 Spyder no use in 4 cylinders econobox not even worth for a CL-9 or Mercedes.

Available all over at Zamzama and DHA / Gizri shops at KHi also Penzoil and Valvoline.

Why is the firing order strange for Bugatti's W16 engine? is it because of the 2 V8's together?

Pardon me, but both of these oils are crap. Even the Japanese Tin pack oil too.
Recently I went to Toyota Garden motor and slipped into their stock room with their manager. OMG.... I saw a very huge stock of Toyota's tin pack 10/30 SL grade oil. Infact, this oil is totally mineral but as they've bought the big big stock, so they will recommend to everyone to use this oil in their cars. But I will ask Why? Because SL grade oil can be used in 2004 or older engine. So technically its not recommended to use it in 2005, 2006....2014 vehicles. But majority of us only believe that Toyota can provide the genuine oils for Toyota Cars, and hence using the same blindly and without knowing this truth.
We are so na?ve.
