My choice, based on the detailed research, is Petronas Syntium 7000dm 0w30. It has all the main characteristics that D3 engine requieres to run smooth and last long.
Red Line.
I like red line oils, because they have a bit more zddp which is nice for the rockers.
Petronas sprinta racing 10w40
On chilly winter mornings (SF Bay Area) the car did not like reverse or first gears. Subsequently switched to Red Line engine oil. More power, better mileage.
Eu coloquei na última troca o oleo 15w40 da Petronas API SP. Reparei que meu carro ficou até mais econômico, inclusive.
Ran Redline 5w40 when it became purely a summer car in ~2013. ... Not seals are leaking, no issues of any form. Car has been Cobb stage 2 91oct tuned (OTS, not pro-tuned) almost 14 years, with a Crawford v2 AOS, Killer B oil pickup + windage tray being the only reliability mods, and it doesn't burn a single molecule of oil.
Redline is great, used it for years in a track car.
My STI also used it for a while (0w40), but then switched to Rotella.
I just put Redline 5w-30 into my 2011 STI at the last oil change. We'll see how it goes.
e pelas infos que to vendo desse oleo tbm é o errado, nao tem a especificacao que a gm pede que é a dexos 1 gen 3, so tem as especificações pra modelos antigos do onix, entao alem de pagar caro o OP colocou o oleo errado
