How 5W30 stands for

Toyota SAE 5W30 has an all-weather viscosity according to the SAE classification. The marking of such lubricants is based on the type “viscosity index at sub-zero temperatures / w (from the English word winter, which means “winter”) / viscosity index at positive temperatures.” Decoding 5W30 indicates that the lubricity of the product will be optimal in the range from minus 35 to plus 30 degrees Celsius.

Instructions for use

The optimal Toyota 5w 30 lubricant change interval will be every 10 thousand kilometers. However, this figure is conditional and is focused on the most favorable operating conditions. With a constant high load on the engine, the lubricant quickly becomes unusable, oxidizes, begins to thicken and “eat up”. Therefore, it is better to change it after 7-8 thousand km.

How to distinguish a fake

The original Toyota 5W-30 has excellent technical characteristics, which, unfortunately, a fake cannot boast of. It's tricky, but you may run into tricky salespeople. Here's how to distinguish a fake from the original:

  1. Distributed in 1- and 4-liter barrels. The large container has a reusable lid and handle. The liter is completely sealed.
  2. New steel-coloured tin with a red circle on the front.
  3. The welding seam is smooth, almost imperceptible.
  4. The information contains the main description, tolerances, technical characteristics, manufacturer's data. The print is good quality and readable. The letters are clear and the colors are bright.

In general, engine oils in an iron can are rarely faked. This requires expensive equipment, which is simply unprofitable for fraudsters. However, it would be useful to know the article: 4 liters 0888010705, 1 liter 0888010706, many people are looking for the article 5 liters, but there is none for this product.
