Hello,

My car is a 2007 model and so far the service has always put a total of 7000 series oil on my car. (Starts at 10W and semi-synthetic). I want to change this oil, but I cannot decide which oil suits my vehicle best. I live in Ankara, summers are hot, winters are very cold and I like to drive the car. The oils I intend to buy are:

Mobil 1 0W-40 new life
or
Mobil 1 5W-30 esp formula

I read that these can be used for my vehicle, but I am not sure. Does it look like new life is better, if I put oil loss or other problems?

Finally, when I last checked my dipstick, I realized that there was no min and max expression on the stick, there are only 4 lines with small intervals at the end. My oil is cloudy in these 4 lines (even passing very little) when I check it. Could there be too much oil in the vehicle?

1.6 hdi s 5w-40 of any brand recommended, & nbsp; but if you want you can use 5w-30 or 0w40, there will be no harm, the only damage will be to anyone who cuts & nbsp; If it is too light, there will be no damage, but how many mm is the line spacing? If there is a fap in your vehicle and there is a risk of pressing oil, I advise you to check it frequently.

I do not recommend putting oil with 40 viscosity. 5W-30. Mobil 5's 5W-30 ESP oil is exactly itself.

I think it was a bit too fat but it doesn't hurt. It can make a difference if it's overly well.

35-40 degrees last summer temperatures should be used 5/40 instead of 5/30, I know that 5/30 can be used in winter or around 30 degrees

A subject open to discussion. I don't think like you said. As everyone now knows well, 5W-30's 5-digit engine is cold, while 30 is the viscosity value of the oil when the engine is hot. The letter "W" in the number 5 comes from the word winter = winter, but this does not mean bear, but when it is cold. Since it is the number two, two different viscosity values emerge. Therefore, it is necessary to deal separately. Let's examine immediately: The value of
5 is the oil viscosity value at the time of the engine's first starter. So what does this mean, if the weather is -30 degrees outside, the oil has a temperature at or near it. That is, the viscosity value of the oil in the first engine start depends on the environmental conditions.
On the other hand, we said the value of 30 is the viscosity value when the engine is hot. What is this temperature? Let's say our vehicles are in the range of 90 to 105 degrees. Therefore, the temperature of the outside air should not be noticeable whether it is 30 degrees or 50 degrees, because the temperature of the engine is already 90 and above.

So for me, it doesn't make much sense to play with the second number according to the air temperature. With the second number, I think that only if the engine is running, if there is wear, the number can be changed. I think we can only play at the first figure depending on the temperature. If you have a different opinion, I would like to listen with pleasure.

I put esp 5/30. I'm very satisfied. I wish I had used full synthetic oil before. It seems that the car noticed immediately in its sound and traction. Definitely esp 5/30 alt

The table above is a list of recommended and non-recommended oils that another friend has previously uploaded in the forum.Erlaubt = Not allowed, not to be used. looks. By the way, 5w 30 esp 0w 40 in the bauhaus was more expensive than 20-30 tl. I had the last maintenance of my car in ankara goral last April. But what should I lie? I could not warm up this service, I do not believe that they did the job properly ... I could not measure the line spacings on the dipstick, but I can say that the total of all 4 lines is around 3 cm. As I said before, the oil passes these 4 lines. The reason I want to change the oil is that even though my car is 5 years old, the engine has not been fully opened at 27,000 km and still has not been pressed properly until now, the gears have not changed over 2500 cycles. Last month I chiplettim car and the person I made the chip said that I should use full synthetic oil and reduce the oil change intervals especially after the chip. I want to choose the most suitable oil for this use condition, as I have made the chip and I will force the car in the next period. Meanwhile, after chipping the car, it throws light black smoke in the bottom gas, I think this means burning fat. romeoclarks2012-05-13 17:52:53

Black smoke after blasting does not mean it burns oil, which means that the vehicle is working with a rich mixture, which is very normal.

Well, I have chips in my font, I use normal oil, no problem. performance increased significantly
fuel did not decrease tbai same as

Unfortunately, I am not very knowledgeable about these issues, but I just stated my opinion and you explained it in detail. thank you only from my own experience I can say that I used 10/40 and 5/40 total personally, I did not see a difference between them (silence, burning fat, etc.) I think there is no need to pay a lot of money, after paying attention to the change period, any oil known as quality can be used.

Then let me get 5W 30 esp. It didn't work, I put 0W 40 in 6 months and try to see which one is performing better in the car. contribution). I have definitely not seen any benefit, I'm sure full synthetic oil will perform much better than semi-synthetic + boron additive.

It is recommended that engine additives, which adds that the oil additives damage the oil more than it does, and the engine runs smoothly. 5-40 & nbsp; or 0-40, whichever suits your purse.
