Toyota PASSO
1- How to know which engine oil is used by Toyota PASSO. We have Toyota Passo 2014. The attached snap is taken from car bounut

Daihatsu MOVE
2- Anyone can help what does it means 0W-30 in the attached picture and 100000 OR 5000 OR 10,000 kms means. The attached snap is taken from car bounut

As per the owner's manual. 0w20 or 5w30 is recommended. If the engine is well maintained then 0w20 is preferred. Here is the link for the owners manual for the passo: https://www.mediafire.com/file/lgm5fd2b524f2lz/passo.pdf
It's a google translated manual so the english is pretty wonky but it gets the information across.

Same thing for your Daihatsu Move, 0w20 or 5w30 and do not fall for the 10000kms oil change. That interval is for the oils sold in japan and they are much better than sold locally in pakistan and the japanese don't drive as much as us pakistanis. Change your oil at 5k and you'll be fine. The KF-VE engine takes 2.9 liters with filter.

What's shelf life of synthetic oils? Especially those with packing opened.

I mean my car needs 2.6 ltr oil but packing comes in 3.7ltr and one ltr is returned after oil change. Is it useful in any way?

Its worth some 1000 PKR, so don't wanna drain it!

keep the cap locked store the bottle in shadow. you can use it within a year

[euroloilpakistan]

Typically, motor oils stay stable and have a shelf life of up to five years. However, this stability can depend on a number of factors and it is always advisable to follow the manufacturer’s storage instructions. You must also keep a watch on the expiry date and refrain from using the motor oil once it has crossed that date. There are different types of motor oils available in the market such as synthetic motor oil, synthetic blend motor oil, high-mileage motor oil, and conventional motor oil. Their composition and the additives in them will affect their stability and storage capacity.

1.keep it in clean place out from dusty places
2.keep the bottle cap closed
3.Extreme temperatures such as below 0ºF or above 100ºF can affect the stability and the ability of the motor oil to effectively lubricate the engine. Very low temperatures can result in the formation of sediments in the motor oil.
4.Humidity can cause condensation in the motor oil so keep it safe from humidity.

up to 3 or 5 years

Thanks. Btw there's one 0w20 and one 5w30 remaining oil. Both from honda/total.

Is it possible to mix them and use later? I think NO but just asking.

[euroloilpakistan]

i think you shouldn't as both are of different grade.

[capsat]

NEVER USE
-
Any product randomly, check from few reliable shops and buy product only from the reliable shop

[euroloilpakistan]

Walikum Salam,

Most of liquimoly dealer blend this oil in there work shop hard to spot which one is original.

[euroloilpakistan]

yes buy only from legit dealer as your vehicle engine depends on it.

[capsat]

buy only shell helix, Caltex Havoline, Catsrol GTX Only from designated fuel stations

Hey got a question in mind
5w30 and 10w30 oil should work the same and should have same viscocity at operating tempratures right?
The only difference should be in the cold start right?

[capsat]

yes though 5w-30 is better in winters while 10W-40 is good for summers... .

[euroloilpakistan]

yes These oils have different thicknesses in cold temperatures with 5w30 being the thinner of the two. For this reason, it’s recommended to use it instead of 10w30 for vehicles operating in cold climates.
