What Engine Oil?

So synthetics are your best bet.

Here's one for you then... What would be the best synthetic oil for a Yaris? I currently use Castrol Edge... I think, can't remember.

Which Yaris do you have? There's a bit of a difference between the oils, depending on year and engine.

I've got a Mrk. 1 Yaris. 2000 reg 1 litre engine.

I would use a 5w-30 oil

The best ones there are the Silkolene Pro S, Motul 300V and Redline, but the Motul X-Max, Gulf Formula FE and Fuchs XTR are good cheaper alternatives.

 

We also have service packs available here

I'll go with the Silkolene Pro S! £50 every 10,000 miles isn't so much when you think about. Better that than a new engine!

Any discounts for a Toyota Owners Club member? :D

Are there any reviews of Silkolene oils?

[oilman]

It's our biggest selling performance oil.

Good enough?

How much oil does a 1 litre Yaris engine hold, does anyone know? I'm in the warm and my manual is in the car in the cold...

I can buy a big 5 litre bottle of oil and still have some left for the next service. Brilliant! :D
