List of Toyota Approved 1WW / 2WW BMW Engine Oils

[Guest]

Hi forum, I've come across this online... it's from Toyota and is a list of 'approved quality' engine oils for the 1WW / 2WW engine.  Interestingly, it only has the grade (5W-30) and 'SAE'... I believed there was more to it in terms of additives specific to the engine to keep it from upsetting the timing chain... but for anybody concerned as I am, but not as willing to buy the Toyota branded stuff, here you go!

Toyota Repair Manual (RM25H4) > Engine / Hybrid System > 1WW Lubrication > Oil and Filter > Replacement. 

I will avoid posting the source I found it from (for now) due to what I feel might be a low-key affiliation with Toyota UK and the forum meaning it might get reported and taken down...  If anybody wants it I will share it privately. I only intend to share nuggets here and there of useful info, or when helping people with 1WW / 2WW specific problems. 

I recently posted I wanted to know 'all there is' about these engines, and at last, I have found it!  

For anybody wanting to verify it, it can be verified on Toyota-tech.eu requiring a subscription or I assume calling a dealer, but whether they know this exists on the system is probably a different story
