Hello to all of you. I must say this is a great site, especially for the hilux surf owners. Thanks must be given to Koi and certainly - the Godfather.
Nways, come to the point. I have a bluedevil (actually Navy) ssr-x 95 TD, Recently I had some probles with this beauty and went to the workshop. Shes on 94,000 km. Along with the other repairs, there is a pipe coming from the engine which goes back to the turbo (they say it recycles engine air through the turbo and allows for the engine to breathe!!!), they took it out from the turbo and extended the pipe with an open end. Their opinion is - engine gas mixed with engine oil - coming through this pipe will lower the turbo performance. Now, the pipe expells a lot of engine oil. After my recent change of oil, It drank another 4 liters of oil for just 2,000 km. Please also advise me on engine oil. The recommended is probably 10W-30 for 5000 km. But we dont have 10W-30, so I used mobil delvac multigrade 15W-40 ..... (its new in the market, the earlier diesel special from mobil in no more).... I don't care about brand or price.. I need a good suitable engine oil that will keep my beauty soft enough to thrill... I have more. . but for now I think it is more that enough. .... Answers please...
nb: please pardon me for the non-technical talking...as you know.. I am a newborn newbie...
