Not familiar with Motul so I'll let someone else comment about it.
Royal Purple 5w30 is for gas engines only. I think your trooper is a diesel. For diesel RP recommends its 15w40 you can also use their 10w40 or 20w50. Just use the viscosity your manual recommends.
Heres a link to their specs:

I think the 4jx1 engine requires a 30 weight oil. Petron has a 5w 30 compatible with your ride...

How about for 96 Honda City? what viscosity should I use? is there a such thing as Royal Purple Oil 20w50?
sir, sa club namin, may mga gumagamit na ng motul... its coming out cheaper than what the casa is selling us and the quality is much better.... but i can only speak as far as engine oil for diesel engines lang...
20w-50? yikes ang lapot nyan para sa city.
i'd go no lower than 10w-40, maybe 10w-30 for any honda manufactured after 1990. maliliit na kasi clearances ng makina sa loob. 20w-50 will work, but expect a slight dip in fuel economy.
5w-30, pwede, pero i have to report, na when i used caltex's 5w-30 havoline for 6 months, biglang nagka-meron ng scuff marks yung roller cam lobes ng CRV 1st gen ko. i saw this nung tinanggal yung rocker cover for periodic tune up and valve adjustment. so i went back to 10w-40/30.
yung Royal purple ba na gamit ng speedfix straight from the US?
pansin ko kc parang repack and maputla yung packaging ng motul so i have my doubt ..
wich one would be the best in quality and performance ..
Royal Purple 5w-40
Mobil1 Delvac 5w-40
Castrol Edge 5w-40
or 5w-30?
all mentioned above are fully synthetic ..
performance po bahala na kung mahal ..![]()
among the 3
i would go for Mobil1 Delvac since its made for diesel engine oil
Royal purple is a great oil, I think it can be use on diesel engines too.
Castrol is on the bottom to me, the only thing that catches my attention on Castol oils are their Syntec lineup w/ are not available in our country coz we still use their old version of it the castrol RS
You can use the RP 5w40 for diesel but its only rated as CF. CF rating while still in use, has been surpassed by newer standards. As I stated earlier, the RP 15w40 or 10w40 are the RP variants for diesel engines.
