Hello guys what's up?
Recently I bought the car listed above LE model and I was wondering if I can use Ravenol 0w-16 fully synthetic API SN instead of Mobil1 0w-16 fully synthetic API SN?Because I cannot find Mobil 1 in my place.
I mean can I use another one instead of Mobil 1 as long as it has the same specifications?
Thanks in advance.

Good evening,

Yes you can as long as the specs are the same. There will be no issues using other brands as long as the specs meet OEM requirements.

The one with the picture of the bottle is good.

I would use that as it meets the specs.

Hello guys again quick question.

Is synthetic=fully synthetic?
And if not does it mean synthetic=blend synthetic?
Because I have only found this in my area (attached photo).

Thanks

Synthetic is fully synthetic.

If it was not not, it would be called a blend.

You are good.

Thanks, I checked the level of oil I think its a bit over level like 0.100 ml something like that.
Is it okay? Or should I drain a little bit?
