[usmantanzeel]

Hello

Please i need sincere advice urgently. Do mention brand name as well
JazakaAllah

Brother use Total 5w-30 with good quality oil filter.
Change at every 6-8k km or 6-8 months which ever comes first.

Why are you blindly recommending him a petrol engine spec oil for a diesel vehicle? I don't think the total oil has ACEA B3/B4 approval.

To the OP. Your car requires API CF and ACEA B3/B4 certified oil. Shell helix ultra 5w40, Mobil 1 0w40, Mobil 1 Delvac 5w40 all will work great. Its difficult to find a 5w30 grade oil that has ACEA B3/B4 certification in Pakistan.
However, I saw the newly launched Shell helix protect 0w30 has the ACEA approval so may be you can look into that too.

Please see your car's owners / users manual for all these details. It will contain all the recommendations regarding engine oil grade, change interval, etc.

Whichever engine oil you use, ensure that oil is preferably fully synthetic, 100% genuine and original, and from some reputed brand (like Shell, Total, ZIC, Kixx, PSO, Mobil1, Caltex / Havoline / Chevron, etc.). Fancy, expensive engine oil brands may be avoided.

Use that oil which meets / exceeds OEM requirements and specifications.

Delo gold 400mgx (15w40). Change every 5000 km.

I don't agree with any of the above recommendations.
I was in same boat few months back and eventually settled for mobil super2000 5w30. But only downside is its semi synthetic and change at 5000kms

Shell helix ultra 5w40 better or shell helix protect 0w30? Do you have any idea of changing interval amd price?

[usmantanzeel]

Is liqui moly 5w30 for diesel engines and meets the requirement mentioned in manual? Whats the price dear?

[usmantanzeel]

Bro do you think opting for semi synthetic will be a wise decision? Again does it fulfills the requirement of the engine oil mentioned in hilux manual?

[usmantanzeel]

And is there anyone who has used castrol 5w30 and Valvoline 5w30 oil? Does these oil fulfills the requirement and are up-to the mark?

It does as per me only down side is its semi synthetic as I couldn't find fully synthetic in same spec. I intend to pour mobil1 5-30 fully synthetic this time.

Would have settled for mobil dalavac if it came in 5-30

Mobil super2000 is same oil as toyota taglon x.

Now there is a big confusion guys
1) Liqui Moly 5w30 price Rs 6400 OCI 10000 kms imported from Germany
2) Valvoline 5w30 price Rs 4400 OCI not confirm imported from Singapore
3) Shell Helix Ultra 5w30 Rs 4500 OCI not confirm Manufactured in Pakistan (not sure)

Above mentioned all three oils are 100% fully synthetic and are easily available in Pakistan. Now please i will request if anyone can help in shortlisting one brand of engine oil logically
