Hi guys.
I have a question re what oil to run in this.
We're running this as a farm wagon, and we'll drive it until it's junk on the farm only.
As it's going to be fully off-road, we will be removing all the DPF and cats (don't want issues with DPF and catalytic converter clog) which means we no longer need to run rubbish oil to suit these systems.
My default oil here is (usually) the same stuff we put in the farm trucks and tractors, being Delvac Super 15W40 or Rimula R4X 15W40.
But I don't know a lot about these little V8 diesels. We run 15W40 in everything else and they have lasted just fine. Toyota want a DPF safe 5W30, which will wear out the engine.
Am I on the right track here?
