UOA - Blackstone - Toyota Yaris Forums

Here is my first oil analysis from Blackstone. 2007 Yaris sedan with just over 120,000 miles running Amsoil 5W-20. I thought the results are pretty good.

hummm, would 0w20 be better??

Excellent

. Is that S.N./GF-5 or S.M/GF-4 ? May ditch the Pennzoil Platinum and go to the AMSOIL in a 5w-30 or 5w-20 . What oil filter and air filter were used ? How long have you used AMSOIL and did you have to top off the oil ? Last , is that the AMSOIL Signature , XL or OE ? Thanks for the post !

Maybe better for mileage, but as far as I know, Toyota has never issued a TSB showing use of 0W-20 for the Yaris, although it has been a while since I've looked...

Oil is here:

Signature series. Did not add any oil between changes, used with a Royal Purple oil filter, and an Injen CAI. I have been using Amsoil signature series along with the Royal Purple filter for quite a while, I want to say I started around 40,000 miles, but I can't confirm right now, as my wife took the car with her today.

The Yaris was given a

for the use of 0w-20 in Canada along with 5w-20 .

Good to know, I might switch to 0w20 next change. Is this confirmed for the USA as well?

Not that I'm aware of . Why Canada and not us is beyond me

I'd like to pitch in on the UOA's if possible. Is there already an AMSOIL Dealer on Yaris World?
I've been a member for awhile but after several good analysis, I figured I'd pop in here and talk to folks.
