Hi, i am driving a D-Max 2020, current mileage at 45 000km.
i had refer to my user manual where i can use 5w30 lubricant for this vehicle, problem is i can't even get the lub 5w30 for this diesel engine. and all d-max service center is using 15w40 CI4 grade of lub. trying to find at spareparts shop also cannot get.

since my engine is 1900cc. please recommend me the 5w30 CK4 original shell 7L pack.

Thank you Sifu

For diesel pickup trucks usually use 15w-40 for mineral and semi syn, for full syn u can go for 10w-40. Just make sure oil is rated at ci-4 and above. Don't use x30 oil.

You can refer to owner manual, but for example hilux owner manual says you are able to use 5w-30, 10w-30, 15w-40 and 20w-50. Usually 10w-40 and 15w-40 (sc also use this) is used. I have seen many who use 5w-30 and 10w-30 in our climate experience more engine wear sooner.
