    They are correct. If one reads owners manuals of our rigs, it quite clear that temperature dictates what viscosity to use. If we were in a cold country then 20-30 oils would be good. But in the Philippines it would be wise to use 40 or 50.

    Parang hindi pinagisipan ng Toyota ang chart or they're marketing their "Toyota genuine motor oil" as meeting all temperatures kahit 0w20 pa sya.

    What I do with my rigs still under warranty I instruct the casa to use the correct weight oil. On my LC 200 - 5w40 Motul CRDi oil. Intially they used 30 weight oil, unfortunately even before the next PMS, dipstick reflects some oil loss.

    Toyota casa is easier to deal with on this. I got a Jetta recently and VW insists on using a 20 or 30 weight oil. Had to top up about half a liter months before it's next PMS. They'll eventually turn around.
