Hello Friends,

1 month ago I joined you by buying a 2019 Model 3008 1.5 Dizce Eat6 vehicle. I had the last maintenance done at Düzce Peugeout Kervan authorized service, it says 5w30 there, but they did not specify the oil brand as TOTAL!!!

The main thing I want to ask and get your opinion is PSA and TOTAL 0w30 oil for our vehicles, but authorized services put 5w30. .What is the reason for this, why is the oil recommended by the manufacturer not put in? Are there friends who have talked to Peugeout Authorized Service about this issue before?

Hello sir,

Let me explain the reason for this as follows: oil recommendations vary according to countries. For example, in countries such as Libya, they recommend thicker oil, in cold places they recommend thinner oil. Probably 5w/30 is put in because there is no problem in 5w30 oil and it is more affordable in terms of price. In short, manufacturers can offer different oil options according to regions.
