What oils should I prefer and why?

Which oils should I prefer and why?

Car oil is a key component of good engine operation and prevents the engine from being damaged by friction and mechanical stresses, so it is recommended to check it regularly.

Also, depending on your use, you need to know the type and viscosity of the suitable oil for your car.

Use only the recommended oil for your engine.

Even if the oil is black, it can still provide the required quality & performance.

Finally, if it “soaps” and turns a strange blonde color, this is a sign that your gasket has been burned and water is getting into the oil. This means that it will soon need repair.

With all of the above in mind, when choosing an oil for your vehicle’s engine, you can be sure that you will ensure maximum performance and longevity of your engine and, therefore, your car.

Never “mix” different lubricants.

Combining two different oils is not recommended. By “mixing” two different lubricants, you are, in fact, mixing different formulas, and different additives.

Result?  A reduction in oil efficiency and a change in viscosity, and therefore a reduction in engine operation.

Our garage has the best and most known brands of lubricants, such as TOTAL, CASTROL & LIQUI MOLY.
