Then to your point, why has Toyota not published the required use of 0w20 only? I ask you, Because other countries under various climate such as Thailand, UAE, Mexico, Russia, Japan, etc, Toyota has published thicker oil viscosity recommendations based upon the temperature ranges- for example...

Has anyone claimed that Toyota is incorrect? Or have they just contented that Toyota is attempting to meet CAFE ratings for their entire platform Of vehicles within the United States, therefore similar climates over various countries allow for something different than 0w20? Mind you, by Toyota’s...

Exactly and the best example is creating direct injection and the majority of “OEM” manufacturers never addressing the carbon buildup on engines for another decade. Oh, then there’s the multiple automotive manufacturers modifying their software to increase mileage at the expense of...

Feelings.com, right or did you write something similar instead of countering an opinion with an ad hominem reply-

As mentioned to you before: Toyota OEM validation in Russia for the identical engine is 0w20- for Cold climates, and up to 5w30 for above -17 degrees Fahrenheit.. you dismissed this before. Also, As mentioned to you before: Toyota’s Mexico OEM recommendations allow for up to a 10w30...

Yup, you ain’t wrong!! 🍿 he came to defend his opinion with an ad hominem

You can answer your own question about the owner’s manual recommendations for the Tacoma United States owner’s manual vs an owner’s manual recommendation from 200 miles south. No one is claiming to change your oil at the border, that claim you made is a bad faith argument. When reviewing other...

You are spot on…

The base line of thinner viscosity oils is more thermally conductive but fails at a lower temperature? That baseline? Or the baseline of oil options being different based upon regional climate, that is outside the United States, where CAFE rating policy isn’t what drives oil viscosity...

The empirical data you demand, you fail to present for your own argument, so I don’t give your demand much relevance since it doesn’t apply to oneself.. It is demonstrably proven that thinner viscosity oils are more thermally conductive but fail at a lower temperature/ addressing your wear and...

Now you just agreed with me? . I have been writing about the CAFE requirements driving oil viscosities to be lowered for this engine, as indicated by owner Manuals from other countries. GM switched from 0W20 to 0w40 for their 6.2 engines that had crankshaft/main cap issues. After verifying...

Oil spec for El Paso, Texas- 0w20 Yet just across the border in another North American country, Mexico, like Jaurez.. 5w30/10w30. Same climate as El Paso

Everything I cite “supports your claim” glad I could help. Can you advise all of us as to why those engineers that chose the engine oils that caused damage to their own engines? I cited mistakes from OEM manufacturers for oil for their own engines. GM recently bumped up oil spec requirements...

Unless that plaintiff has oil analysis to prove engine wear, or accelerated wear.. Kia engines are known for failing… that said, I sell lots of Mobil 1 0W30 to my local Kia dealership. Likely the Kia owner is looking for a settlement do you know why the Volkswagen Audi Group developed 502...

He is moving the goalposts-a common debate fallacy

Same en Same engine same components, Only difference is CAFE rating for the United States- different market… lol

You can’t answer the question, it’s ok..I will do the hard work for you- no parts are different, nor is there any difference, Just a CAFE rating. The anecdote? Would you like the European oil spec guide as well? These can certainly be introduced into court, what I provided wasn’t anecdotal...

Shell oil purchased Pennzoil decades ago and the old high paraffin oil base stock is no longer used, they bought the brand not the product. The new oil is very different. It is the only oil recommended by Chrysler/dodge for hemi gas engines… You are in the auto parts industry? If so, hello!! So...

Can you advise all of us with the different parts+ part numbers for the T24A-FTS engine components that relate to the use of 0w20 engine oil, for the United States, compared to European T24A-FTS engines, which advise 0w20, 5w20, 5w30, and 10w30? Also, these trucks are assembled in Mexico...
