Kia baat hai. Chaa gaye bhai aap. Chalo laga lo

It can work, but point is which will work better, in my opinion & experience its 0W20,

@crude101 @rajaatta Please respect the difference of opinion

[crude101]

Bhai both will work well. Toyota japan does recommend 0w20 and it will work well. See the weight factor is to be adjusted with climate also. I would use 0w20 i quetta which is not too hot and at the same if im karachi then would go for 0w30 or 5w30.

[rajaatta]

Ending the conversation because dalda and sarson ka teeel is better than 0w20.
And I don't recommend on guesses and tukkkas I work on these engines regularly and know the difference between using 5w30 and 0w20 in this machine. So use what the Yourhighness Dr Sab recommends because he already had advised me use dalda in my fleet vehicles. And I am using desi ghee in them.

[crude101]

Acha explain ke how 5w30 wont work on this car? Why is 10w40 working well on cars recommending 5w30. Leave your highness and mehrunisah

[rajaatta]

See the temperature ranges of both oils on the pictures I posted 0w20 is as good to use till 50degree c see the chart Dr Sab.

In Quetta I use channi ka Teel ( Iranian mobalalll along with smuggled petrol. And vehicle works like a horse)))

Jee behtar.

I used 0W20 from Karachi to Khunjerab pass, (literally not saying as a quote, I actually traveled).
I live in south Punjab where avg temp is 45-48. 0W20 can be used with temp rising to 50 degree.
as far as 5W30 is concerned see below picture from car manual.

Have you ever disassembled this new gen engine????

It has so much tight clearence in between crank shaft bearings and piston side side skirt and cylinder bore. Plus it has narrow oil expander rings in which only 0w20 penetrates well so using high viscosities in a healthy engine only use lowest viscosity available on oil recommendation chart.

Always remember to choose the lowest marked viscosity on oil recommendation chart.

@rajaatta @crude101 Calm down brothers, Don't fight on it, Both OIL can be used.

[crude101]

Ok bhai.

[rajaatta]

Yes toyota recommends to use only and only 0w20 if it's not available always use it again.

Thankyou so much all dear members, your recommendations are fairly welcome. As for now i flushed the engine and put in 5w-30 fully synthetic because i couldnt find 0w20 neither on toyota nor on any local retailer neqrby and i had to travel long this morning. But the ride has already improved in performance and mileage has increased by atleast 2-3 litres per kilometre. Im surprised actually.
But very shortly i'll be putting in the 0w20 and see what difference does it make from here on.
Thank you guys for ur valuable suggestions, i really appreciate the concern you people have shown.

[pwuser148592960854]

Engine's condition was alright, no residues whatsoever, no bluish smoke. I'll get rid of the 5w30 soon and use 0w20 as soon as i get it. But changing oil viscocity again and again wont hurt the engine in long run, right?

[rajaatta]

No problem at all

[crude101]

What's ur say of having 0w30 in grande instead of 5w30? Will it improve cold start and fuel economy?

Recommended is 5w30.

[rajaatta]

2zr is a good engine and it is happy with 0W viscosity yes you can shift on 0w30 but the oil should be of a reputable brand and must be 100%synthetic fluid.
