Hello Everyone,
As you might know we have an economic crisis here, the authorized dealer does not have 0-20 Oil, and i searched around i could not find 0-20 Oil anywhere, what i found is Fanfaro 5W-30 API SL/CH-4 TSE, i would like to know if it's good for the engine ? Thanks! |

Definitely tough times over there. Thoughts & prayers for u and your country.
If that’s the only oil u can find, I believe it’d be perfectly suitable for daily driving. Ideally API service category would “SN” but “SL” will have to do. Here’s a link to a forum with a lot more knowledge when it comes to oils. https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forum...l-shop.310812/ Best of luck! |

+1 to it should work. Not ideal on the API standard, but I run 5w30 and that weight is fine. Take it easy and good luck.
