Hello,
I purchased Maruti Ignis Sigma 1.2 ltr manufacturing 2018 purchased in 2019.

As my vehicle is not running too much, in last 2.6 years it covered only 7500kms

Castrol 3.1ltr best for ignis
I'm having Esteem diesel, which oil i need to use
I've a XL6 petrol AT , which engine oil grade does I've to choose ? 0W-16?
Thanks in advance.
Apart from MGO brand, IS Shell Engine Oil is good to use? Please suggest.
Yes use all aftermarket synthetic oil. MGO is a low grade fuel efficiency promoting oil. Go with Idemitsu, Motul, and Castrol.
Please suggest best engine oil for Dzire 2019
This is confusing...Manual says 5w 30 for my Zen estilo 2010 k series new type2....Nowadays maruthi service centres put 0w 20 in all k series....
Should I believe manual or service centre?
Your guide too mentions 0w20...
Yes, that is according to international norms for getting higher fuel efficiency. Stick to non Maruthi oil. Go for API SN 5w40 oils from Castrol, Motul, and Idemitsu. If you have a good budget try out Liqui Moly as well.
