Correction , my car is not a cygnus its just a Land cruiser V8 4.2

It's not diesel it's petrol.

@ Drift_Boy
Dear sir, In V8, Land Cruisers are available with 4.5 D V8 diesel engine, combined with a new 6 speed automatic transmission, with 650 Nm from 1600 to 2800 rpm and 286 hp at 3600 rpm. with fuel consumption of 10,2 L/100km,
<?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O /><O:P></O:P>
and for V8 Petrol , Land Cruisers are available with 4.7 VVT-i V8 petrol engine, combined with a 5 speed automatic transmission, which develops 445 Nm at 3400 rpm and 288 hp at 5400 rpm. with fuel consumption of 14.4 L/100km,

Any how for Gasoline/Petrol version i recommend ZIC XQ, API SM, SAE 5W40, with 15k ODI, and for Mazda RX8 , It has Rotary engine and for that you should use ZIC HIFLO,API SM, SAE 20W50.

Thanks

Sir, ZIC A+, API SM, SAE 5W20, FULLY SYNTHETIC ENGIEN oil has lighter viscosity and it is recommended in Newer engines engines and ZIC XQ , API SM, SAE 5W40, is also fully synthetic engine oil more supiror than to others with long ODI 15k ~ 20k
If you wanna use then use ZIC XQ, and A+ is recommended for newer engines

Dear guys,
em using CALTEX Havoline CNG

What is the mileage u recommend???

Can i use this oil upto 5000 km easily?????

[kashif_virgoo]

I have Santro 2003. Currently I am using Caltex Motor Oil with viscosity 20-50. The problem i am facing right now is the oil starts decreasing. After driven 1500 KMs, the oil is reduced by a half quarter. Let me Ad here that the car give blueish smoke @ startup only, after few minutes the smoke vanishes..
Is this could be an oil issue ?
Can switching to ZIC HIFLO 20-50 can fix the problem ?

[fasfas]

Caltex 20w-50 CNG as posted above had this issue with my friends car, but not with other Caltex.

Quantity/rate of reduction you tell is much higher and point to some engine issue.. BUT if it's decreasing then no harm trying other oil and you may once check STP oil treatment bottle in addition.

Try ZIC or Petromin Ultra-7 for 20w-50, in such worst case that grade should be used.
