Hi Guys, Back in time we always used to change the oil regardless of the manufacturing company, now I decided to buy the proper/suitable oil for our car. Here in the country choices of engine oil aren't alot, but the infamous oil companies products are still available.
I have found in the manual that they recommend " Selenia 20K 10W40 multigrade synthetic oil exceeding ACEA A3-96, CCMC G5 and API SJ specifications "
In case I couldn't find it what's suitable as a substitute ? Should I get the replacement oil with the same manufacturing technology (Synthetic Oil) and with the same viscosity rating (multigrade 10W40) and does it have to pa ss the same organizations tests/standards ( Specifications/standards of ACEA , CCMC , API )
Some information on car:
The car has problems burning oil and loss of oil in short periods of time and there is spilled oil all over engine, white smoke from exhaust, maybe the piston rings need to be replaced or what else is responsible ? I heard about Engine Oil Additives which is great for affected engines like mine ? what do you think guys ?
VIN: DAA17800001509093
Design No.: 98802420
Engine No.: M06755545
Engine Type: M 605 WA 13 T 304 1.4 178 SPI HD + KLM(MISIR)
Class of cylinders: BBBB
please help me decide what is suitable for the car
thanks in advance
