While every engine is different I figured let’s start a database of oil samples. Might be helpful for comparing the health of our diesels.
I’ve recently changed the type of filter I’m using and seeing what condition the oil is in if I push it out to yearly changes. I was mainly concerned with silicon content as I have an aftermarket air filter system.
Make/model/year Toyota Hilux 2016
Engine 1gd-ftv
Km/Miles 97,000km
Oil Nulon full synthetic 5w30
Air filter brand/type Fatz Fab airbox and paper element with Donaldson cyclonic precleaner
Oil filter brand/type Ryco long life
Turbo y/n Y
Intercooler y/n Y
EGR system y/n N
Catch can y/n Y
