Re: Pajero 3.2 oils and lubricants
Agree with delo400, absolutely best value for money, used it my old v6 petrol pajero, corsa 1.4i petrol and my current 3.2DiD pajero, can't go wrong.

For Diff oils I use castrol syntrax 75w90 gl5 and transfer case I use castrol bot402 gl4 gearbox synthetic oil. Still expensive at about R65.00 to R75.00 a half litre.

Re: Pajero 3.2 oils and lubricants
Delo 400 is the higher spec & hence a bit more expensive. Pay the extra & know that you've done the right thing.
Re: Pajero 3.2 oils and lubricants
I tried to pick up the usual 2 cans of Delo 400 for a routine service, but were unable to find any at three auto spares shops :o . I see there is a new (what I was able to find out) Delo 400 flavor out - MGX (see attachment). Price and specs seem similar to normal Delo 400. Does anyone know what MGX are all about? Did MGX perhaps replace normal Delo 400 or should I just visit some more shops? :)

Was at two Midas shops and Makro. No joy... :(

I used to buy Delo at our local Caltex filling station.

I use castrol 5w-30 full synthetic engine oil.

Re: Pajero 3.2 oils and lubricants
My truck runs on the 5W30 full synthetic Castrol (Dexos2 spec) because the manufacturer absolutely insists on it. Yet, when you look at the oil viscosity chart in the owner's manual, then 15W40 is clearly the correct oil.

AND full synthetic comes at double the price.

If you swap your oil and filter every 10k km, then Delo 400 15W40 multigrade is perfect for both the diesel and petrol Pajeros.
