If u want ur warranty to remain active...Taglon..... nothing outside Toyota dealership

[uahmedr4656]

What's the grade of taglon ?
I guess changing oil at dealership costs you more than others
Which oil filter should we use ?
Thanks

Please explain everything correctly.

His Toyota warranty will also be void if he uses petrol from other petrol pumps. Only use Toyota petrol. As and when it is available.

Also, now Toyota 3S dealers have service stations as well. So his warranty will be void if he gets his car Axle Eye washed from road side.

His warranty will also be void if he replaces his cars tyres with any other brand than eurostar.

Driver also needs to be trained from Tota. Wait for driving classes to start.

Although his warranty will not be void, if he fills gutter water in his radiator. Also, if the dealership manager is his friend, then he can even replace parts from new cars even for no reason. No need to have any warranty.

There are better and cheaper engine oils available in the market than Taglon.

Oo hosla... dealerships maintain warranty only when customer sticks to them and they stamp the book. This is simple if buy new car and ever needs to claim its warranty. Baat petrol ki nhn thi ...not sure but probably you are living in europe. If question is from Pakistan..answer will also according to our system. If i start going to outside mechanics..and then if i need warranty claim..will u be claiming it for me.

There are certain rules...and we have to live by that...if i m lying..go visit dealership yourself

[fastian04]

I have actually claimed warranty in Pakistan...and it's tougher to be honest.. using such comments will.not help the owner if he finds issue in new car. Mashwara hamesha emaandari se do...werna putting stupid examples is not a hard job...there are much much better oils available...but its better to use oem one for 10-15k kms...to be on safe side

Read your cars owners manual. The recommended viscosity is mentioned there. It is not 5W-50, though.

Yes. Cars in Europe run on water. They do not have ring pistons. Neither are there any bearings in engine.

If m wrong..here is a request..claim me a warranty without warranty cars signed and stamped:) ..read the terms and conditions on any auto manufacturer website in Pakistan.

Sir, You know every rule about warranty in Pakistan?

Just tell me where in warranty terms and conditions, it is mentioned using any engine oil brand which is not Toyota will void your warranty. Why they quote "API SN" in the owners manual.

What you are mentioning is a "badmashi" of these 3S dealers.

I have been through a couple of warranty claims. In the end it is only your relationship (call it sifarish) with the dealer. They will not bother whether you have even a warranty booklet or not. Sign and stamp is a long shot.

But if you don't have right connections, there is no warranty even if you wear a Toyota uniform while driving your car. They will find a way to reject your claim.

[fastian04]

They can surely reject as they are badmash here but it is mentioned that u need to show service history....they won't stamp the book if u change oil from outside and thus can safely reject any claim. I myself is trying everything to get rid of Taglon and to some extent i have been successful but everyone does not have a sifarish and still with proper paperwork and history.. dealership has to claim...or atleast the customer can use legal options. Without having history they can politely refuse and that's the problem. Dealerships are stealerahips without doubt..

Toyota is selling vehicles with 3 years warranty / 100,000 km Stick to 3S shops for oil & filters changing.
warranty void if you use any other lube grade & non oem parts.
Toyota is pouring 20W-50 Genuine Toyota oil from factory and they change the grade after 40,000 km run.

You seem to somehow related to Toyota. Kindly request them to at least update the owners manual.

[fastian04]

This is what you need, so service history is a must.

20W-50

@capsat bhai 20W50 in a brand new engine??

20W-50

@capsat bhai 20W50 in a brand new engine??

Yes. You know why?

It is the cheapest. And indus is cheap.

And then they bully you too to buy cheap.

[ehalin]

It is a fact that even if you use the cheapest engine oil, nothing is going to happen to a modern engine within 100,000kms. When warranty is over then it is your problem. Efficiency and environment are not Toyota's problem either. You will pay for your fuel not Toyota indus. And we all give a damn about environment.

Toyota has bought a lot of the cheapest oil available in the market and now they are bullying customers in the name of warranty to use it.

What I understand, people have a fear. With the track record of Indus, they fear that something big is going to fail in their indus assembled cars. So in order to avoid any big loss they obey whatever Indus imposes in the name of warranty.
