JoeW Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Wouldn't recommend Pulzar and neither semi-synthetic for a new car like yours. Also I think Suzuki recommends 5W30 for a Suzuki 1.2 engine (K12B) and not 10W40. Also don't forget to change your oil filter together with the new oil otherwise an oil change is quite useless.

DavisH Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 0w20 is the synthetic that will be used for thr 1.2 swift. Thats for fuel savings. The 5w30 should work as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 From an oil website. "Semi-synthetics" are oils which are a blend of petroleum oil and no more than 30% synthetic oil. If the manufacturer adds no more than 30% synthetic oil and does not change the additive package, they do not have to recertify the oil. These days, since everyone has agreed that Group III base oils are "synthetic," I'm not sure "semi-synthetic" means anything at all. The manufacturers love this stuff: it costs about 15% more to make the oil, and they get to charge about double. I don't recommend semi-synthetics. Save your money and take your kids to McDonalds. What you bought probably won't do any harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeW Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 As far as I know, Pulzar doesn't make their own oil but buy it OEM from ?. it's not bad, but not great either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
