All-weather Japanese engine oil ENEOS 5W-40

Engine oil is a necessary element for the proper functioning of the car. However, without experience it is difficult to choose one thing and the most suitable for a particular car from the whole variety of brands and types of motor oils. For this reason, it is often necessary to study each manufacturer and their products in detail in order to make a choice.

This article will focus on the number 1 motor oil brand in Japan: ENEOS. Japanese cars and accessories are among the best in the world. Motor oils are no exception, especially multigrade oils with a viscosity index of 5W-40.

Meaning of 5W-40

This value indicates the viscosity of the engine oil, and hence the temperature regime in which the fluid will operate while maintaining the declared properties.

Oil with a viscosity of 5W-40 is all-weather: it can be used both in summer and in winter. This fact is indicated by the presence of the letter ʺWʺ, which is an abbreviation of the English word ʺwinterʺ (translated as 'winter').

The number "5" indicates the limits of winter indicators (frost resistance), and the number "40" - the limits of summer indicators (heat resistance).

An engine oil with this alphanumeric value will operate correctly between approximately -30°C and +40°C.

Reviews

• I work at an oil change shop. I personally use Eneos oil and also advise clients. So far no deficiencies have been found. The oil does not go away, the engine runs quietly, smoothly. After opening, the engine turned out to be clean inside, which means that the oil works and at the same time retains its properties for a long time.
• Now I no longer use Eneos oil, but before that my mechanic advised me to fill it in, and I trusted him. I can say that the oil was not of poor quality, but after a few years it became much worse. So my mechanic stopped buying it, changed it to another one.
• I started buying and using these oils by accident: my friend is an official importer. There is an opportunity to buy at a reduced price, which can not but rejoice. At the same time, the quality is chic, I am completely satisfied with the way the oil performs its declared functions. I even poured this oil at my own risk into cars for which Eneos does not have approvals, but everything went well. Even one of these engines was dismantled - cleanliness, beauty. This all applies to oils in metal containers, they are almost not fake (a little expensive).
• No oil claims. He copes with his duties with a bang. In frost, too, did not disappoint, the car always starts. Bought for several cars, we will continue.
• Lem Eneos since the purchase of the car. On it, he has already traveled more than 190 thousand kilometers, and this is 19 oil changes. At first, there were some doubts that this was the No. 1 oil in Japan, but after the first application, they completely disappeared. Runs quietly, starts in the cold. The price has changed a lot over the years, but we still only sell ENEOS.
