JustGav Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I thought you had a master tech there who knew the toyotas? I go with 10-40w on an NA as that's what I get easily.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, 10w-40 in a high mileage NA. You can use 5w-30 if you want: I think that's what Toyota workshops use, but it can weep out of high mileage engines a bit. Edit: just seen that you have a BPU (TT presumably), so I'd use 5w-30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
