Mate, Check your user manual and see what spec oil you need. then you can ask which brand is good once you find out whihc brands support your car's specifications.

Be verycarefull with auto transmission oil specs. as wrong oil can cause trobule,

no idea on the CNG kit though.

Toyota recommends T-IV type transmission oil for Vitz. This is not available anywhere in Pakistan. You take your care to any Toyota authorized dealership and they will just pour Dexron I type. This is not good for Vitz. The least it needs is Dexron III type. I'v done my bit of research and the ony option you have is to use Caltex Texamatic 8812. Its available in Super Market, Islamabad. Texamatic is a close match to Toyota T-IV. Any other oil will just destroy your auto transmission and completely change the gear shifting behavior. So be careful.

ATF type T4 is available in Pakistan, toyota claims they have it but I doubt it, I think check Caltex they have equivalent of T4

Engine oil, if your pocket allows go for synthetic (Mobil is good), otherwise caltex havoline is good. Use toyota genuine filter.
