    Should you own more than one vehicle, select the oil used in the vehicle driven most frequently.

    සොරි බ්‍රෝ මම දන්නේ නෑ.
    සර්විස් දවසට වාහනේ ටොයෝටා එකට දාලා එනවා
    හවසට ගිහින් අරන් එනවා.
    උන් මොනා දානවද දන්නෑ.

    Then what's with that image 😂

    But just refer to the last maintenance service bill if you're not sure, it'll mention what oil they used

    Using Castrol Edge 5W-40 Fully Synthetic. Can use 5W-30, but given ambient temps in our country, using 40 and to hell with Fuel consumption.. :yes: also Manufactures ask to use thinner oil just to keep the hyper milers happy at the cost of wear and tear..

    I think so too, besides hypermiling better fuel efficiency translates to lower carbon emissions thus aiding in meeting environmental regulations and fitting into lower tax brackets

    Manufacturers don't give a f as long as the car survives the warranty period
