blunt2dcore:The recommended oil is 0w20 or 5w20. The 4-cylinder has a factory defect and consume oil . The v6 would have been an excellent choice Mobil 1 5w30 high mileage is your best choice to start with . And you can monitor the oil consumption from there.... I import from the USA and you can scan my product for authencity.. Am also on tiktok. Send me an email dru23@hotmail.com. We can have it delivered to you anywhere in Lagos or outside 1 Like

blunt2dcore:Use 5w30 engine oil. If it is a full synthetic brand, you run it 6000kms 8000kms or 6months whichever comes first If it is a mineral oil, you run it for 3000kms or 3months whichever comes first 1 Like |
