2017 everest 4x4 ua 3.2l. getting a mid service schedule oil change as i wish to keep the car for 20 years. 5w 30 penrite (non enviro) has been recommended to me and researching this i think thats the shot. going to do it every 7500ks. any Another everest ranger 3.2l auto users out there?
Hi Matt, The Full Synthetic 5W-30 is fine for this vehicle. It can also use Enviro+ C2 0W-30 if needed. Both products meet the Ford specifications asked for this vehicle.
Hi Guys. Today I went to 3 stores looking for a 1 litre top up 5w-30 as the car manual recommends . Although I couldn't find anything was all sold out. The lady at Super Cheap suggested Penrite and said it was a great Oil if not better than Castrol Edge . So after driving around for so long I just grabbed it and went to the counter. Only to realise it was 5w-40. Will this Oil be ok for my car?. It does state on the bottle it can be used for 5w-30 but some extra validation would be great. It's a new car but used , and I'm a little nervous to against what the manual says.
Thanks
Hi Rick, I can only guess what car you drive from the type of oil it recommends (I'd say a European car, maybe a Volkswagen or something of the like??). From then it's a question of where you live. If you live somewhere cold (say NSW or further south), I'd recommend sticking with the w30. If you live in a hot area like WA, NT or QLD, the w40 should be ok.
If the car is under warranty, use only what the book says.
Hooroo
If it makes any difference the car is a 2010 Hyundai i45 in very very good condition with only 23,000 km on it.
The engine is in immaculate condition still looks brand new.

What would you recommend for a non turbo territory with 370k - long time user of HPR5? thanks John
Is your Territory a petrol or diesel and are you using HPR 5 Diesel oil or HPR 5 full synthetic?
Petrol - normal Hpr 5
no mate not burning any oil at all - just thought a heavy grade for the extra clearances it probably has at 370k ?

I have a 2.5 litre 2010 Nissan x-trail (petrol). The Penrite website says to use HPR5 (5W-40), yet on the super cheap auto website it recommends HPR 10W50. The car is on about 90,000kms with no smoke at all. Mr penrite, what would you use?
Id use 10 w40 or 5w 40 with 90000 klms on it. Though im not saying which oil brand to use its up to you . Also depends if u live in cold climate or hot climate
