Goldenvodka 2nd Gear February 8, 2022 Share February 8, 2022 Wondering if I should switch to 5w30? Driving a swift sport with mileage 200k. The car is 13 years old. Been using 5w40 since day one as 5w40 is always one of the cheapest. The manual states that oil weighing from 20 to 40 can be used Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been through all kinds of unknown Brand’s including META etc Thin oil increase wear lor, slightly more only. How slightly, you shouldn't see much different for the next 10years lor. Usually, when the car is new use thinner EO is OK, as the car age, switch to thicker oil. The bottomline is simple, how much oil consumption can U tahan. I can tahan 0 to 500cc per 10kkm. I only change at 15kkm. Just switch to thinner oil, monitor oil consumption lor for the first time. Anyway, it is good practice to monitor EO level ......bi-weekly or month. Once the EO Warning light up, every once, your engine would have degrade..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
