Any feedback on this Total fully synthetic for diesel?

My manual says I can use API Service SJ or above, ACEA A3 or above for drain or refill of engine oil.
I have some questions:For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE 0W-40, 5W-30, 5W-40 (API Service SL or above, ACEA A3 or above).
1. That means I can use Shell Helix Ultra right?
2. As I understand, 0W-40 would provide better fuel economy over 5W-40, did I understand this correctly?
3. If the above is affirmation, any good oil recommendation for 0W-40?
API SJ is really old, i'm guessing your vehicle is at least 10yrs old? what is the vehicle?
The latest is API-SN. most oils ie API-SN, API-SM, API-SL will work great on your vehicle.
1. yes, you can use shell helix ultra "for gasoline" engines be it 5w30 or 5w40/0w40.
2. 0w40 oils does have an fc advantage over their 5w40 counterparts, this is less than 1% though. 0w40 oils have slightly lower viscosities than their 5w40 counterparts be it castrol/mobil1/shell. in bitog forums, we consider 0w40 as thick xw30s
if your vehicle calls for 5w30, use 5w30, it will have better fc than any 0w40/5w40.
3. 0w40 list: Castrol edge FST, shell helix ultra, mobil1, zic x9
I think the manual is old material or just playing safe with wording. My vehicle is perhaps the cutest size here in tsikot - Hyudai Eon GLS.
Thanks for this sir. I think I'll switch to Shell Helix as it has positive reviews in this thread. Currently, I am using Mobil1.1. yes, you can use shell helix ultra "for gasoline" engines be it 5w30 or 5w40/0w40.

Used it a few times. Ok naman from seat of the pants feel tahimik at free revving ang takbo most likely because 5w-30 weight. Used it sa sta.fe gen.2 and isuzu fuego. Problem is the price 480pesos - 550pesos/liter depending on the volume. You could get cheaper zic synthetic which is comparable if not better.
Yun micking oil, Meron na nakagamit? Mura ng fully synthetic nila

Doubtful ako sa seller na yun sir. Nakabili ako sa kanya before. 8L yata yung 2nd time ko bumili ako. May isa open na yung container and parang nilagyan nalang ng oil yung container.
Nakikita ko nga din sa facebook feed ko yan. Not sure if repacked oil ba yan.

Hinde repacked. Nag browsed ako Sa website nila Korean brand yata, content mura ng fully synthetic.
I guess if you're currently using semi synthehic or mineral oil mas maganda Naman siguro irony fully synthetic.
And I don't subscribed to putting semi synthetic. It's either mineral if kulang budget and pag Meron Naman then fully synthetic.
