Engine Oil

Improve your engine’s performance with premium engine oil. It helps to lubricate, cool, and protect your engine’s internal components, helping to reduce wear and extend engine life.

Gearbox Oil

Maintain reliable performance under high pressure and heat with quality gearbox oil, ensuring smooth gear shifts, reduced friction and wear in transmission systems.

Choosing the Right Truck Lubricants for Optimal Performance

Choosing the right engine oil for your truck is essential for maintaining performance,
prolonging engine life, and ensuring reliability under various conditions.

Consult the Owner’s Manual

Follow manufacturer recommendations for oil type, viscosity (e.g., 15W-40), and specifications.

Match Oil to Engine Type

Heavy-duty engines require thicker oils, whereas newer engines may need specialized lubricants. For diesel engines, it’s important to use diesel-specific oil.

Consider Operating Conditions

Climate

For cold climates, use lower-viscosity oils such as 5W-30. For hot climates, use higher-viscosity oils such as 15W-40.

Driving

Frequent towing, heavy loads, or stop-and-go traffic need oils with enhanced strength and stability.

Account for Engine Age

Older engines may benefit from thicker or high-mileage oils for better protection.

Understand Oil Types

Conventional oil is suitable for standard use, while synthetic oil offers superior performance in extreme conditions. High-mileage oil is designed for older engines, and low-SAPS oil helps protect the emission systems in newer trucks.

Frequently Asked Questions

To check your truck’s engine oil, park on a level surface, turn off the engine, and wait for it to cool. Locate and pull out the oil dipstick, wipe it clean, and reinsert it fully. Pull the dipstick out again to check the oil level against the “full” and “low” marks; it should be between them.

The best oil for a truck is the one recommended in the owner’s manual, which is often a multi-viscosity synthetic oil like 15W-40 or 5W-40 for heavy-duty trucks. Always check the owner’s manual for the specific grade, viscosity and type of oil (synthetic, blend, or conventional) required by your engine.

You should use 10W30 in cooler climates for modern engines, as it provides better fuel economy and flows better in the cold, while 15W40 is better for hot climates, heavy loads, and heavy-duty diesel engines because of its higher viscosity and film strength. 

Neither 10W-30 nor 10W-40 is universally better; 10W-30 works best in colder climates and improves fuel economy, while 10W-40 suits hotter climates and high-performance engines with better heat protection.

Signs that your gearbox oil needs changing include slipping or difficulty shifting gears, strange noises or vibrations from the transmission, a burning smell, dark or discoloured fluid, and the vehicle lurching or accelerating poorly.
