[lui90]

hi im new to this forum i have recently purchased an 2003 corolla sportivo and it has 191,000km im planning to do a full service to it so im planning to do oil, oil filter, fuel filter, spark plug, air filter and leads. Im wondering if there is anything else people recommend to do and im wondering what oils and stuff to use. i have research about what oil and people recommend 10w30 but today i went to my local auto store and they recommended for the kms i have penrite 15w60 semi synthetic so im just wondering what people recomend for them kms or it doesnt matter.

hi welcome to the forums mate. I use hpr5 on mine. My current kms is 9x,xxx. 15W60 might be too thick at this stage. Just my opinion though. Id run hpr5 til it breaks doesnt matter how many kilometres its done

thanks mate for the reply and nice welcome yeah thats what i thought it will be to thick. the max i have got out of a tank is 500kms driving it normally i just think that the car needs a full service as i dont know when the car was last service and anything else was changed. btw nice car love the wheels

If there is no oil consumption between services id be more inclined no running the recommended oil viscosity.
