Comparison Mazda Original Oil Ultra 5W-30 5 L vs Total Quartz 9000 Future NFC 5W-30 4 L

Type of engine for which the oil is designed. If compatibility with your type of engine is not directly indicated in the oil specifications, you should not use this brand. The fact is that all types of modern engines have their own characteristics, and a lubricant not designed for these features can increase wear, reduce power, or even lead to breakdown. Modern oils can be produced for the following options:

— Petrol. A four-stroke internal combustion engine (ICE) running on gasoline is implied. The main type of motor for modern passenger cars, it is also quite common in medium and high power motorcycles.

— Diesel. ICE on diesel fuel.

— Gas-gasoline. Petrol engine (see above), supplemented by gas-balloon equipment and capable of using natural gas as fuel. One of the main features of working on gas is the high operating temperature.

— Hybrid. Most often, hybrid cars combine a gasoline or diesel engine with an electric motor and can be powered by either one or the other. Both the design of the "hybrids" themselves and their engines can have significant differences from classic cars.

— 2-stroke. Two-stroke internal combustion engines are widely used in motorcycles — in particular, almost all scooters, many entry-level and mid-level motorcycles, as...well as tools like chainsaws, are equipped with such engines. Their main feature is the use of a fuel-oil mixture instead of a separate filling of gasoline and oil.

There are brands of oil that are compatible with several types of engines at once.

The nominal capacity of the package, in other words, the volume of oil supplied in this packaging option.

Depending on the purpose of the purchase, the type of vehicle and other factors, the optimal volume will be different. So, liter bottles are useful for replenishing the oil supply, or for tasks that do not require high consumption (for example, infrequent work with a gas tool); a capacity of 4 liters is designed for a complete oil change in a passenger car; the volumes required by trucks can reach tens of liters; and for car parks, service stations and other similar organizations, oil is produced in barrels of about 200 liters.

Tolerance can be described as an individual automaker's own standard, developed for a specific engine or engine line. It includes all the requirements that an oil must meet in order to be optimally suited for a particular engine. The list of these requirements is much wider than in generally accepted standards (see above). This is due to the fact that many of the manufacturer's developments applied in the motor and affecting the requirements for oil are still too specific and cannot be included in the general rules (and some cannot be taken into account also because they are classified information) . Many famous car brands have their approvals ( BMW, Fiat, Ford, MAN, Mercedes-Benz, Opel, Renault, Peugeot and Citroen, Volvo and VW concern); to obtain approval, each brand of oil undergoes very rigorous tests, and only after them does it receive the right to indicate information on compliance on the packaging.

This information, of course, is not necessarily indicated for all car models. However, if the tolerance data is in the official specifications of your car, the search for the right brand of oil is gr...eatly simplified — the compliance of the oil with this tolerance automatically guarantees optimal compatibility with the car. In other words, instead of specifying a whole set of parameters (appointment, viscosity, etc.), it will be enough to make sure that there is a tolerance.
