Best HDEO in Pakistan
Was looking for a cost effective HDEO for Toyota 1GD FTV and compared their viscosity at 40 Celsius and 100 Celsius. While the Manual recommends 5W30 which typically has viscosity of 68 at 40celsius and 10.3-5 at 100 Celsius most 15W40 HDEOs in Pakistan have viscosity of 102+ at 40 Celsius and 15+ at 100 Celsius.
The Toyota Heavenly Potion DEZONE Blended by Mobil Askari Oils (MAL) seems like a rebranded product of Mobil Delvac Super 20W50 CF-4 with viscosity of 149 at 40 and 17.6 at 100.
Then I came across Total Rubia 15w40 TIR 7400 CL-4/SL HDEO, checked it's specs online and found out that this HDEO has viscosity of 98.7 @ 40 Celsius and 13.6 at 100 Celsius. This HDEO in my view is most suited to 1GDFTV engine unless one is living in colder areas.
