Hello.
I've bought Optima (Korean build) with 2.0 CVVL NU engine (with variable valve lifting) - I'll change oil at 1500km, but I'm not sure which one should I choose - owner manual stands for:
Oil grade
Recommended
- All (Except Middle east, India, Libia, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Sudan, Egypt, Iran) : ILSAC GF-4 & API SM / 5W-20
- Middle east, India, Libia, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Sudan, Egypt, Iran : ACEA A5 / 5W-30
I've narrowed my search to three oils:
Valvoline ENV C2 which I'm using right now in a Kia Rio 1.4 CVVT Gamma engine (120K kilometers without a problem) https://goo.gl/s4nTq5
RAVENOL SFE SAE 5W-20 - https://goo.gl/DCd9ys - in my opinion this would be best choice
There is also a LOTOS Quazar K/FE SAE 5W-30 - oil that Kia Motors Poland recommends - here its PDS https://goo.gl/92wNmU
I'm driving 20-30 thousands kilometers annually, most of these mileage are long trips on highway (mostly in Germany, with v. high speed (~170-180 km/h))/express way. I'll change oil per every 10.000 kilometers.
Thank you in advance for help, if you have more suggestions you're all welcome
