Guys, im due an oil change but cant get the oil i have been using anymore the supplier has stopped importing it to the Cyprus. I only used Liqui Moly 5w-40 High Tech. In the summer we have temps outside 45-50 celius which is extremely hot let alone a M156 running temp.
My question is now i have this oils to choose from-
Wurth (been told owns liqui moly) 5w-30 Triathlon Formula L 229.5 spec
Shell Helix Pure Plus 5w-40
Castrol Magnatec 5w-40 299.5 spec
Lucas 5w-40
I was also recommened 10w-60 due to our climate we have. Any expierances?
Which one do you guys recommend for me to replace the Liqui Moly High Tech iv been using. Shall i change oil grade due to our hot climate we have.
So i can't tell you what to run in Cyprus, what I can tell you is that on your list the 5w-30 is not approved, the manual clearly states 229.5 oil spec but only 0w-40 and 5w-40
If you watch Taso's videos on youtube, he is in the UAE and he has some info on running 10W-60 there in the heat.
