ZIC 20w-50 oil X3 (Multigrade) & X5 (Semi Synthetic) any feedbacks

**drich_enriquez** · March 16th, 2020 12:00 AM

Good Day fellow tsikoteers. Nag browse ako sa Shopee ng langis, biglang kong naisip I search ang ZiC oil. Nung lumabas ang lahat ng ZiC oils, nakita ko yun dalawang klase ng 20w-50 which is the X3 and X5. Ask ko lang kung nasubukan nyo to? Any feedbacks/reviews? Current oil na gamit ko is Petron Ultron Touring 20w-50 (API SL) on my 2006 Toyota Innova J Gas

Thanks!

you do not use 20w50 in a gas engine. Sobrang lapot. Magiging andar desel ka.

Kahit sa current desel, Hindi dapat gumagamit 20w50. Yung mga gung-gung sa banawe at toyota casa gumagamit ng ganyan viscosity.

Really? Sa experience ko, ok takbo at swabe gamit ko Petron oil. Hingi lang ako opinion at feedbacks about ZiC oil sa nabanggit kong oil type. Kung may nag Sabi pangit ang ZiC, back to Petron ako, Toyota oil or other oil brands.

20w50 is ok for high mileage gas engines.. pero mas recommended ang 20w40

Hindi naman panget yung zic... yung viscosity na gamit mo ay masyadong malapot.. kung high mileage na yan engine mo say 200k kms na tinakbo.. ok yan 20w50..

Check your manual for oil recommendations. Do not use 20w50 on gas engines even if older models unless it’s the only option available. I learned my lesson before when I cheaped out on using 20w50 on my old 2001 Accord. I changed it after a month of use.

20W50 was our mainstay motor oil in our 60s-70s cars.

what happened, when you used 20W50 ?
