7mgte oil question Wed, 09 July 2003 06:50 Go to next message
So i've now got a supra with a 7mgte in it, and it's way overdue for an oil change. So i go to super cheap auto and pick up 5 liters of Mobile 1 synthetic oil 5W-50. And it occures to me what if 5 litres isn't enough?

how many litres of oil do these engines take? should i go buy another 5 litres for $69.99? also is 5W-50 good for the cold weather here in Tasmania? Thanx in advance for answering a simple question.

i hate bieng a newbie. Crying or Very Sad

buy the service/repair book for your car (or any car with your model 7M-GTE) and it will say in there

did you try searching the forums first?

Yeah i tried searching, i couldn't find what i was after, maybe i just couldn't word the search right.
I find it easier and more convenient to ask on the forums, i thought that's what they were for?

And besides i don't think the manual will tell me if 5W-50 is good for cold weather or not. I'm more after personal expierience on that one.

5 litres with an oil filter change (this is assuming you dont have a remote mount or an external oil cooler)

cheers
