Help to choose between brands in 0W-20 engine oil for Toyota Aqua

[faridahmed]

the 0w20 of total bottle says its coming from singapore

Aoa,

I really dont understand the purpose of this thread. Please understand that there is no lab in Pakistan which can determine which is the best oil.

Just remember you need 0w20 oil, if you ask me I would go for the multinational companies like Shell, Total etc.

Most important is that you buy oil from a reputable reseller.

This is the point where you are cheated and sold Re-cycled oil.

[faysalayubkhan]

from where you purchase in Karachi ? & why you guys recommending Moly green instead of Toyota oil ?
0w-20 is good for Karachi weather ?

[ahsanonline]

So what are the choices in IMPORTED 0w20 grade? And what are their prices?
Liqui moly
Moly green
Aisin
Total
Shell

[amerfsd]

Both are available in the market. Former one for Eco and later one for hybrid Vehicles

[hamid_gilani]

price of amsoil 0w20 ?

[rajaahmed96]

Liqui Moly followed by Shell and Total.

[salik990]

i find in every DHA shell pump and total pump having 0w20 grade, also caltex shops having imported 0w20 as well.

I recently bought total quartz 9000 5W30 4 liters for 2600. STRANGE ISNT IT?

[rajaahmed96]

Its cheap compared to other brands. Works nicely till 8000kms with genuine filter.

Aqua of my neighbor was giving too much engine noise with 0w20, went with him and poured mobil 1 0w40 in his aqua. Fuel economy has jumped from 18km/l to 20km/l. Engine noise has drastically reduced and engine is running smoothly. He is following 10,000kms drain intervals without any issues, and quite satisfied with the oil.
Keep in mind that Pakistani enviornment have more heat than japan, dust, smoke and putting pedal to the metal bad fuel quality.
I’m also using mobil1 5w50 in my corolla altis 1.8 cvti with drain intervals of 10k kms. Fuel economy is around 11-12 in summers and 12-13 in winters. On long routes it gives me 15-17 at speeds of 100-120.
13-14km/l at 140km/h and 11-12 at 160km/h.
Research and development of oils matter a lot.

2nd: Honda 0w20. Drove 6000km. Price around 3500rs. Relatively smoother engine. Fuel avg: 24kmpl in city with ac.
3rd: Shell 0w20. Driven 2000km. Price around 4900rs. Really smooth engine during drive and at ignition. Fuel avg: 25kmpl with ac.
I drive on light feet and keep stock tyre size with pressure of 30psi.

Quite satisfied with Shell. (until I pour German LiquiMoly ofcouse)

Hi,

I have noted strong hype created by some friends about LiquiMoly. I agree that its a good option for normal engines.
I have pointed out on different threads that Toyota Hybrids require fully synthetic 0w-20 oil.
LiquiMoly is Synthesis technology (synthetic blend/ semi synthetic).

Why should you buy such a oil at such at high price. Better options are available at this price.

Rest upto you.

[mahmadk8822]

Better options like?

[WahajAfzal]

any dealer of moly green in Islamabad? which got 0W20 4L for hybrid cars?

[WahajAfzal]

I'm using kixx 0W20 API/SN and we got Vezel and Aqua and its working absolutely fine in both cars and alhamdulillah both cars are giving very nice fuel average and performing fine.

[WahajAfzal]

I agree.
Liquimoly 0W20 costs around 6300 for 4L and is good for 10,000 kms on other hand kixx 0W20 is good for 7,000 kms and cost 3420 4L that's almost 3000 extra rupees for 3000 km and I think both are also good for 6 months, at least kixx is. So if liquimoly is also good for 6 months that's useless because I get the oil change after 6 months with 6000 or 6300 km driven oil I can't complete 7000 so spending 3000 extra on liquimoly is just a showoff I think.
