Hello guys what's up?
Recently I bought the car listed above LE model and i was wondering if i can use Ravenol 0w-16 fully synthetic API SN instead of Mobil1 0w-16 fully synthetic API SN?because i cannot find Mobil 1 in my place.
I mean can i use another one instead of Mobil 1 as long as it has the same specifications?
Thanks in advance.

Good evening,

Yes you can as long as the specs are the same. There will be no issues using other brands as long as the specs meet OEM requirements.

The one with the picture of the bottle is good.

I would use that as it meets the specs.

Synthetic is fully synthetic.

If it was not not, it would be called a blend.

You are good.
