This is the fully synthetic version which is available on amazon but not available in pakistan. I contacted the liqui moly pakistan distributor and he said there is less margin in this and less demand. They can fool people with terms like synthesis technology, new generation and synthiol etc.then why they will import fully synthetic.

Ok, thanks for your time and patience to answer my questions, I still have more, can you please comment and compare 5W-30 API SP ILSAC GF - 6A & 5W-30 API SM / CF ? and which one is better among them. As I now have to go with 5W-30 API SP ILSAC GF - 6A and will pour that tomorrow.

The latest the better. Sp is latest which superceded SN and Sn plus. Sm was superceded by SN.
While comparing api rating also consider if the oil is synthetic or mineral. Modern engines love to be lubricated with fully synthetic and allow longer drain intervals with genuine filter.
I am personally using 0w20 caltex havoline in my vitz and 5w30 caltex in my corolla and ma sha Allah satisfied. Just make sure to buy the filter original from a trusted shop or dealership. I prefer dealership for filters. Buy the oil from company operated outlets to rule out the chance of counterfeit.
Hope that helps. Make a wise and informed decision.

fully synthetic

Please ask him a simple question that where it is mentioned on the pack that it is fully synthetic?

[equi_nox]

Thanks. That was really helpful.

On my next visit, hope that does not agitate him.

I said if synthetic oil is used engine can last upto 300 thousand kms

[capsat]

ok i mis read that

I don't think you need to make this small thing super complicated.

Just use what you've got now. Hundreds of vehicles use that LM oil n work fine. It's a good oil, just overpriced.

Just at next oil change you can get havoline from brand outlet or pump.

Owner of 2015 Passo, approx 28K done. Switched to Toyota 0W-20 (Black tin, Japan), car performs better and economy has improved.

[equi_nox]

I just poured in 5W30 Liqui Moly, a couple of days ago and already feeling difference in performance & economy. I am sure 0W20 would be much much better.

How is its performance? How often you change it?

[uzeemujeeb]

i think GUARD has improved their quality control and product standards, We get big packs of GUARD air & oil filters for diesel pick up trucks from mains and MT guys have zero complain for failure or substandard items. Air filters are changed every 10000 kms Oil filters are changed every 7000 kms

Small gift for this group - attaching the genuine Passo repair manual 10-13 for all of you. This was a very expensive purchase which involved importing an actual CD from Japan but am happy to share it here.

Will probably require Power ISO to play. Link can be accessed here for a limited time. TY!
