What kind of oil is in the original mazda canister. Engine oils for Mazda

A car enthusiast is trying to choose the original 5w30 oil, at least most of them prefer it. Where does such devotion and amazing (and so rare in the community of motorists) unanimity come from? The point, of course, is not in something specific, but in a combination of reasons: here you have both the quality of production and the reputation that is valued. However, not everything is so simple: there are several varieties of lubricating fluid, and not everyone is able to immediately determine which one his car needs.

Mazda 5W-30 engine oil compares favorably with competitors.

Why Mazda Original Ultra 5w30?

Deserving a whole army of fans in its lifetime, the oil is actually excellent: the most stringent standards are observed at the plant during its production, and literally every drop is awarded such strict supervision that even transmission fluids and luxury engine products rarely boast. The recipe has undergone many improvements and is really verified on purpose. In addition to the fact that the lubricating fluid was rather strictly tested in “combat” conditions, it must also be added that the manufacturer does not hesitate to take into account the shortcomings that were identified after the product was put into trade. If there is some nuance that needs to be improved, the recipe changes without regrets. Actually, it was thanks to such responsiveness to the comments of users that the line broke up into several products. Each individual oil has proven itself perfectly in the conditions for which it was created. There are only three varieties, it would be useful to consider each product separately in this article.

What Original Ultra oils can be found on the counter, and what are their exclusive properties

In almost any specialized car store you can find the following types of lubricant: these are Dexelia Ultra, Original Oil Ultra and Golden SM. Each of them is suitable for Mazda and is an official original product for it. But at the same time, you will easily find that there are differences in the oils of this line too.

Original Oil Mazda Dexelia Ultra 5W30 engine oil

The motor needs a lubricant: it is needed in any actively moving mechanism. All parts should move and perform the desired range of motion with minimal friction, and ideally without it at all (which is contrary to the laws of physics, but it would be nice). But lubrication is only the first important function. The second is cooling. The more actively the parts move, interacting with each other, the more heat is released. Cooling is necessary, as is heat dissipation, in order to avoid deformation of parts due to high temperatures. An engine without a special fluid simply will not work: after a very short period of time it will simply jam, and in this case only repairs will help the car.

Dexelia engine oil (article 53001TFE) is ideal for Mazda vehicles. designed for gasoline engines, as it is ideally tuned specifically to their specifics. Technological schemes for the production of this product are constantly being improved and take into account all the revealed nuances of use. Multi-capsule design? Turbo? In such conditions, Dexelia feels like a fish in water!

This oil is also suitable for diesel engines, if you carefully consider Dexelia, its properties, characteristics and features, it becomes clear that the product is possible, regardless of whether or not they provide for a catalytic converter, turbocharging. The oil is suitable for cars and trucks. Many reviews on trucker forums - this product is loved and respected. Heavy loads, difficult roads, difficult flights - Dexelia has repeatedly withstood all this. Athletes also speak respectfully about the product, including the tests it has passed under extreme conditions.

Use is possible in any season, at low and high temperatures:

• oil implies high fuel economy (up to 10%, as noted by motorists);
• reduced - the brand monitors the environment and keeps up with modern trends;
• engine life with Dexelia increases;
• temperatures are not a hindrance: even low, even high.

Original Oil Ultra

Mazda Original Oil Ultra 5W30 synthetic product was specially created for modern cars produced under the Mazda brand (which is not surprising). Great for petrol and diesel engines. It works well as a lubricator, as a thermal protection, extends the life of the mechanism in which it is used. Operating temperatures really surprise and delight: the range is even higher than that of the previous product. The engine, regardless of what it runs on - diesel or gasoline - starts perfectly both in cold and in heat. The product takes into account the characteristics and features of the latest Mazda models. And the choice of additives will allow the car owner to satisfy his craving for cleanliness. When using this product, no (practically) deposits are observed. This product is ideal for big cities: dirt, cold, traffic jams - all this does not bother the engine if it runs on Oil Ultra.

Golden S.M.

The last product that combines the characteristics of the previous two in perfect proportion and belongs to the luxury line is Golden SM 5w30. This oil works great in difficult conditions, at high and low temperatures, under heavy loads, in trucks and cars, in the city and on long intercity routes.

If you do not want to choose, but want to get the maximum performance in one fluid, purchase this product - and no need to think about oil at all!

What kind of oil to fill in the engine?- a fairly common question. Everyone knows the importance of timely oil changes and, of course, everyone wants to fill the engine of their car with the best oil.

Alas, there is no definitive answer to this question:
- You can find a huge number of discussions on the topic "what kind of oil to fill in the engine"
- You can watch a bunch of videos with all kinds of engine oil tests
- You can re-read a huge number of articles on the topic of engine oil

But nowhere will you get an unequivocal answer as to which oil is the best. And let's say more, the more you delve into this topic, the more contradictions you will find and the more difficult the choice becomes.

What to do in such a situation?

First of all, refer to the manufacturer's recommendations. Open your car owner's manual and see what it says. And everything is simple there, or Mazda car owners are relatively lucky, since Mazda does not offer many options for choosing oil for their cars:

MAZDA ORIGINAL OIL ULTRA 5W-30
old hydrocracked oil, SM specification
- recommended for all Mazda gasoline engines, including SKYACTV

MAZDA ORIGINAL OIL SUPRA 0W-20
latest SN specification oil
-recommended and developed specifically for SKYACTIV engines

But this does not mean at all that only original Mazda oil should be used strictly. Moreover, Mazda itself does not produce and has never produced automotive oils. It is also a well-known fact that the original oil for Mazda makes Total- for the European market and IDEMITSU for the American market.

You can choose oil for your car from any manufacturer, the main thing here is to adhere to the specification recommended by the manufacturer
- for SKYACTV engines - we recommend using oil with viscosity 0W20 according to SN specification
- for all other engines, except for SKYACTV, 5w30 oils according to SM or SN specification are excellent
- for our customers, we always keep in stock oils of the required viscosity and specifications of the following grades: MAZDA ORIGINAL,total,IDEMITSU, MOTUL

Another important point! - beware of fakes!!!

Recently, a lot of fake car oils have appeared on our market. Therefore, beware of buying automotive oil in unverified places and at temptingly cheap prices.
Unfortunately, we cannot give clear recommendations on how to distinguish fake oil from the real one. The fact is that the degree of protection of the original oil is not too high. Or it’s not difficult to fake the packaging with high quality. And you will not be able to determine what is poured inside the canister.

For our part, we GUARANTEE that all the oils offered by our car service are purchased from official distributors and are not counterfeit.

Good day to all! After reading this article, you will learn how to recognize counterfeit mazda oil using Mazda Original Oil Ultra 5W30 as an example.

What made me write this article? Yesterday, at the end of the working day, a client from another city came to our office for original Mazda oil. He ended the warranty service and had an independent oil change in the internal combustion engine. He took the choice of oil very seriously. This was indicated by the presence of instructions from the Internet, printed on several sheets of paper. We checked our oil canister according to his instructions and came to the conclusion that our oil is real. Today I decided to make one myself. I contacted oil suppliers, found out everything and summarized everything in this material.

Mazda oil fake - external distinguishing features

In order not to run into counterfeit mazda oil, it is necessary to take the product only in verified places. You need to choose an oil according to the recommendations of friends or based on your own experience. But what if none of the above is present? Then our instructions will help you, with which you can easily distinguish original Mazda oil from a fake. So let's get started.

First of all, you need to take the canister in your hands and carefully examine it. First of all, inspect the lid. It should be with a recess and a small raised dot in the center. If the lid is not like that, then feel free to refuse oil - in front of you is an outright fake.

The next step is to evaluate the print quality. There are a lot of halftones on the original label. This is very much a fake. The pirates were never able to achieve high-quality printing. On the original canister, the inscription ZOOM-ZOOM is barely noticeable. But with fake oil, it catches the eye very well. A similar situation with spots on the upper left corner. All contrast transitions from white to black are not clear. This is due to the fact that the original image was vector before printing. And the Mazda oil fake used, most likely, a scan. Here is another significant difference.

We move on. Now you need to inspect the back of the canister. In addition to print quality, pay attention to the bottom backing of the label. The fact is that the back oil label consists of two layers. On the original, the top layer of the back label comes off easily. For a fake - with some effort, and paint remains on a white background.

These are the three main signs by which you can easily distinguish real Mazda oil from a fake. Now let's look at a few more small distinguishing features.

Relief line. On a fake canister there is a strongly convex embossed line, and on the original it is less noticeable.

There are codes on the back of fake oil, but they should not be on the original.

The embossing on the bottom of the cans is very different:

In addition to these signs, you should pay attention to the barcode. There were several cases when the fake was absolutely no different from the original. Mazda issued fake oil only with a barcode. Pirates mistakenly missed one thick line between the numbers 5 and 0

This is how it should be:

How to distinguish a fake Mazda oil by the external signs of the oil itself?

There are also a couple of distinguishing features of the liquid itself, which is poured into cans. Firstly, genuine Mazda oil Original Ultra has a translucent light pink color. Fake is very different:

Secondly, fake mazda oil has a strong smell, but the original does not.

And at the very end of the article, I would like to note that the oils themselves are not faked. As a rule, in the original canisters there is simply cheaper oil. This oil will not break the engine, but who wants to be deceived? After inspecting the canister, pay attention to possible defects. It is important to pay attention to the traces of the autopsy. Perhaps you will have the original canister in your hands, but there will be another oil inside. That's all, I hope this material will be useful to you and you can easily distinguish fake Mazda oil from a fake. Do not forget that we have a few more thematic articles on our site that are worth reading.

The fact that I fake everything and everything we already know. It is especially disappointing when you not only overpaid for a fake, but thereby also aggravated what depended on this fake. This can be attributed to motor oil, when at first I overpaid, and then I also paid for paying for the wrong thing. After all, you can’t deceive the engine, and lubricating properties and additives will not appear from an unreasonable overpayment, they either exist or not. As a result, the quality of engine oil will affect the life of the engine. That is why you need to clearly understand what you are still pouring into the belly of your car. In this article we will talk about expensive branded oils and their fakes. After all, it is these oils that are most profitable to fake, which means that you can often find fakes on them. Here it should be noted that in our country, even for obviously fake oils, there can be “clean” documents, such a paradox. That is, it is pointless to look at certificates and similar pieces of paper, you must be prepared to refuse oil in the store based on the criteria for the appearance of the package and label. But what these criteria will be, we will talk about this later ...

Let's say right away if you come to the store unprepared, you may not even be able to distinguish a fake from the original. That is why it is important to know what to look for.

Mazda engine oil, how to distinguish from a fake

Non-original Mazda oil greatly compromises print quality. The original label is rich in halftones, the fake one obviously did not work out as it should. First of all, a weak contrast can be distinguished. Just look at the small details - at the spot marked with a blue arrow (original). On a fake it is almost invisible. Actually, like the inscriptions “zoom-zoom”.

Further. The original label is drawn in vector format, that is, with smooth, clear edges. Fake - a clear scan from the original, with blurry ones. Where there should be clear transition boundaries (white letters on a black background), they are not clear. Along the border, mixed pixels of the "transition" are clearly visible. And the letter U generally fit and mixed with the letters Z and D. Naturally, this is not on the original oil canister.

Plugs are the most significant difference between Nissan and Mazda fakes of oil cans. Apparently, in order to increase profitability and reduce labor costs, the criminals made only one mold for releasing corks, and it is very similar to Toyota. At Mazda, the center of the lid should be with a recess of three, and on the petals, for which the central part is pulled out, there are 4 recesses for bending.

The fake lid is just flat.
The fake back sticker has a two-layer structure (some people consider this proof of the original). In fact, this is fake. In the original canister, the bottom layer is cut off already in the place where you have to pick it up with your finger. Fake doesn't have that.

And in general, the quality of surface pasting is worse - there may be waves on the label, sand, dust under the sticker.
By themselves, fake canisters are made of less quality than the original. The described signs are more than enough to distinguish the left Dexelia from the real one - the original one.
Here are a few more signs with pictures on how to distinguish a fake from the original.

It seems like little things, but the main thing is not in them, but in what is in this canister !?

Nissan engine oil, how to distinguish from a fake

As for Nissan, the main difference is in the same traffic jam. We talked about this above.

Although, of course, there are more than enough other little things that are worth paying attention to ...

Basically it is poor print quality and inconsistency in the casting of the canister.

Toyota engine oil, how to distinguish from a fake

Toyota oil clearly has a cheaper plastic canister ("wrinkled", a slightly different color), fuzzy stamping of displacement and measuring strip.

Here are photos from one of the forums. But keep in mind that Toyota has a wide list of oils, and, for example, the cork on the original 0w30 is almost indistinguishable from a fake one and does not have the seal shown in the picture.

It is clearly seen that the color of the canister is different. The photo does not convey all the shades, but in life it will be striking.
Some of the oil from Toyota was even with erroneous labels. Perhaps they were not scanned like Mazda's, but painted in Photoshop or something similar. The manufacturer's country was written from the lantern.

GM engine oil, how to distinguish from a fake

The oil is very popular with Chevrolet car owners. Pay attention to the canister. It is the container that fails most often, as in the cases above. Flash and under-twisted cork. Not neat canister shapes with different casting thicknesses. The walls are thick, but in the corners the plastic is so thin that it easily bends inward at the touch of a finger.

The lower part does give out a fake. See how the seam is made on the fake oil canister on the right.

You don't even have to be an expert here. It is better to refuse such GM oil.

It is with Toyota motor oils that the problems are the most. Apparently, the volumes of production and sales are the most significant, which means that fakes are more than the rest here.
We didn't mention Mobil, Castrol and others. Here you also need to be careful and proceed from the criteria for the quality of packaging, labels.
It is best to have an original canister to compare what you are going to buy. This will at least to some extent warn you against fakes, which means it will protect your car from a low-quality product, and you from problems with it.

Recently, the Moscow market has been flooded with fakes of the original MAZDA oil.

They are sold both online and in large chain stores.

Below, we will describe several options for fakes that fell into our hands. Each of them is different from the original, and each of them is different from the other, so, most likely, these are not all possible options.

All of them are united only by the poor quality of the plastic canisters, and sloppy labels.

In the first photo, the real canister is on the left. There are differences in the font of the batch number and production date (almost nothing is visible on the fake, you can only see 09/15). The absence of halftones in the printing of green waves, and in the inscription "ZOOM-ZOOM". In the original, the inscription changes from different angles of view, but on the fake there is no such effect, and the letters are much brighter.

In the second photo, the real canister is on the right. There are two fakes in the center and on the left. The arrows mark the differences.

From friction on the box, the fake label was erased. This does not happen with the original.

The two fakes have the same batch numbers and the same production date in different fonts.

On the fourth fake, almost nothing is visible, except for September 2015.

This is how the real marking on the canister of the 2015 model looks like.

15 year marking on the bottom of a fake canister.

The width of the measuring scale on this canister, marked "15" of the 2013 sample.

The 2015 canister is on the left, it has a wide scale.

However, there are fakes with a wide scale. The real canister is on the right, in the center and on the left are two fakes. One has a narrow scale, the other has a wide one.

Fake plastic quality.

Traces of a roughly machined plastic injection mold are visible.

Fake plastic.

Real canister.

Garbage is clearly visible under the fake label. It is present in greater or lesser amounts in all samples. Apparently the production is going on in very dusty rooms.

The canister has a pronounced relief from the casting mold in the neck area. It's barely visible on the original. Garbage under the label is indicated by arrows.

The fake cork is not recessed, as on the original, oil flows from under it.

However, most fakes are now with a cork recessed like on the original.

Liter cans. The quality of plastic and ZOOM-ZOOM.

Fake on the left.

The font on the back label of a real canister of the 2014 model.

The fake font, closer to the lower right corner, is completely blurry.

Two fonts side by side.

Fake has a narrow scale.

Plastic quality. The original is in the foreground.

Fake on the left. The quality of plastic and the difference in marking fonts.

Stickers of large chain stores on fakes.

A characteristic place on all fakes is smoothed corners.

On a real canister, the corners are made clearly.

Second label on the back.

From a real canister, it is almost impossible to peel it off. The first label peels off easily, and the second can be torn off only by severely damaging it.

From fakes, the labels come off together, and you need to try very hard to separate them later.

One of the fake canisters is a centimeter higher than the original one. The corners are indistinct.

Another fake is lower, it does not have a part of the neck at all, under the cork. Nearby is the original canister, the differences are shown by arrows.

Let's take a closer look at the front labels.

"Broken" pixels in the inscription ZOOM-ZOOM on a fake.

The letters overlap. The edges of the letters are indistinct.

Another variant.

Here the letters in different lines have grown together into one whole, and the spelling of the letter “a” is different.

Everything is clearly printed on the original canister.

This is not a complete gallery, it will be updated.

Be careful.

It's time to add new designs to our collection.

The first sample was made very clumsily, at the level of fakes three years ago, despite the fact that it was bought in an online store in 2016.

A cork without a recess, bad plastic with fuzzy corners, on the green label is two times smaller than on the original.

Original on the left.

The quality of the label printing does not need comments, the production date and batch number are simply missing.

Bad plastic, fuzzy corners

A new element has appeared - a certain triangle that is absent on the original bank.

Sample number two. Bought from Exist.
The canister is made worse, the labels are much better than the first sample.
An exclamation mark appeared on the back label, which had not been seen on fakes before.
A triangle behind the cork, as on the first canister, a pronounced imprint of the shape above the label.

The lot number is printed in a different font

Here is the original font

Fuzzy corners, triangle behind cork

Fake on the left, original on the right. On a fake, smoothed corners, the canister is slightly lower.

Sample number three. Also Exist.

The exclamation mark is in place, the label is printed quite well.

The batch number is printed in a completely different font, different from sample number two and from the original.

Under the stopper, part of the neck is missing. The canister is lower than the original, and a common place for all samples is smoothed corners and porous plastic.

Exist sticker, bad plastic.

On the last two samples, the back labels look similar, the second label is smaller than the first one, as on the original, slightly uneven rounding.
On the original, the first label is glued to the second with small adhesive dots, indicated by arrows on the original canister (it's on the left). The labels themselves do not have an adhesive layer, and are dry to the touch.
Fake labels are smeared with a continuous layer of glue, they feel like electrical tape and stick to your fingers.

On the original canister, the first label peels off from the second from right to left, and reaching the edge, it does not come off further, the left edge is glued very tightly, like a book cover. On a fake (it is on the right), the label peels off arbitrarily, and is not held by anything.

We will update new designs as they become available.
