l know is small sump (3.2 quarts with filter) in this Toyota-Daihatsu 2sz-fe engine Toyota Yaris (French build – 2006 – 62 k miles). This is a fill of 3.2 quarts with MOTUL 8100 X-CESS 5W-40, ACEA A3/B4; API SM/CF, MB 229.5; VW 502.00/505.00; GM-LL-B-025; RENAULT RN 0710/0700; FIAT 9.55535-H2 ;FIAT 9.55535-M2 ; FIAT 9.55535-N2 ; FIAT 9.55535-Z2 ; PSA B71 2296; Porsche-A40, that I put in November usually, with a Mann oil filter. Air filter was also Mann filter. Ran 1 year. Probably 90% of it was severe service, 1.5 mile drive to work, until 5 then drive home. 10 or more trips to my village 25 miles in the mountain and back.
3000 miles for one year.
The engine is specs for 5w30, and obviously severe service too, according Toyota manual.
The problem is that the oil is smelling gasoline and darkening very fast -100 miles, and the end of the year is dark (diesel dark).
Recently I changed plugs, it looks clean inside, engine is not burning oil, there no faults in ECU.
My question is to change the oil twice with 5w30 A5/B5 or with 5w30 C3 I know that TBN numbers are pretty low on mid saps oils, or to use some “stout” brand yearly.
Thank you for your advice!
P.s. congratulations to wonderful forum!
