T-sport Engine Oil?

[T V O R]

I’m a little confused, been reading the user manual and it says the engine oil for the petrol engine on a Yaris can be either of the following:

10W 30

5W 30

15W 40 or

20W 50

So which one should I use? Or doesn’t it matter

[Robie]

Yeah it might aswell just tell you to use Oil.

[Chappers]

15w 40...

5w 30 is like water...brand spanking new baby's...

20w 50 is like treacle.. old cars

[T V O R]

I was leaning towards the 15w 40 or the 10w 30...

Anyone else?

10-40 semi synth

you can go full synth it wont matter its a modern engine

[T V O R]

Now you’ve thrown me! Where did 10w 40 come from?

It’s not in my list!

[jaxx]

10-40 is the most common type of oil you can get

[knightrider]

rob any specific brand you recommend and what grade ill be doing mine soon and adding a TRD filter,

[vladrulli]

yeah... I'm currently using Mobile 1 and it's 0w40 and I think it's a bit too thin... will most likelly try out 5w40 or maybe go with 10w40 next time...

10w40 is most common...

wouldn't personally use 15w40... especially at winter time - too thick...

[T V O R]

OK, looking at the manual it seems it depends on the temperature on what type of oil should be used.

With the British weather as it is it is a toss up between

10w 30 (-18 to 38+ degrees centigrade)

15w 40 (-10 to 38+ degrees centigrade)

The other two types are:

20w 50 (-7 to 38+ degrees centigrade)

5w 30 (-29 to 10 degrees centigrade) Artic conditions!

I think I will go for 15w 40.
