Good guide but there’s one issue about the oil that we could do with your knowledge on. Some 1st generation I20 petrols come with a sticker on the front that says, C3 engine oil only but the manual says A3 oil
Have a look at this : A/B: gasoline and diesel engine oils ACEA A1/B1 Category is removed with the ACEA 2016 Oil Sequences. From ACEA 2012: Stable, stay-in-grade oil intended for use at extended drain intervals in gasoline engines and car & light van diesel engines specifically designed to be capable of using low friction low viscosity oils with a high temperature / high shear rate viscosity of 2.6 mPa*s for xW/20 and 2.9 to 3.5 mPa.s for all other viscosity grades. These oils are unsuitable for use in some engines. Consult owner manual or handbook if in doubt. ACEA A3/B3 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil intended for use in Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & Diesel Engines and/or for extended drain intervals where specified by the engine manufacturer, and/or for year-round use of Low Viscosity Oils, and/or for severe operating conditions as defined by the Engine Manufacturer. ACEA A3/B4 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil intended for use in Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & DI Diesel Engines, but also suitable for applications described under A3/B3. ACEA A5/B5 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil intended for use at extended Drain Intervals in Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & Diesel Engines designed to be capable of using Low Viscosity Oils with HTHS Viscosity of 2.9 to 3.5 mPa*s. These Oils are unsuitable for use in certain Engines - consult vehicle-OEM’s owner’s manual/handbook in case of doubt. C: Catalyst compatibility oils Note: These Oils will increase the DPF/GPF and TWC life and maintain the Vehicle’s Fuel Economy. Warning: Some of these Categories may be unsuitable for use in certain Engine Types - consult the vehicle- OEM’s owner’s manual/handbook in case of doubt. ACEA C1 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil with Lowest SAPS-Level, intended for use as catalyst compatible Oil at extended Drain Intervals in Vehicles with all Types of modern Aftertreatment Systems and High Performance Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & DI Diesel Engines that are designed to be capable of using Low Viscosity Oils with a minimum HTHS Viscosity of 2.9 mPa*s. ACEA C2 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil with Mid SAPS-Level, intended for use as catalyst compatible Oil at extended Drain Intervals in Vehicles with all Types of modern Aftertreatment Systems and High Performance Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & DI Diesel Engines that are designed to be capable of using Low Viscosity Oils with a minimum HTHS Viscosity of 2.9 mPa*s. ACEA C3 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil with Mid SAPS-Level, intended for use as catalyst compatible Oil at extended Drain Intervals in Vehicles with all Types of modern Aftertreatment Systems and High Performance Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & DI Diesel Engines that are designed to be capable of using Oils with a minimum HTHS Viscosity of 3.5 mPa*s. ACEA C4 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil with Low SAPS-Level, intended for use as catalyst compatible Oil at extended Drain Intervals in Vehicles with all Types of modern Aftertreatment Systems and High Performance Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & DI Diesel Engines that are designed to be capable of using Oils with a minimum HTHS Viscosity of 3.5 mPa*s. ACEA C5 Stable, stay-in-grade Engine Oil with Mid SAPS-Level, for further improved Fuel Economy, intended for use as catalyst compatible Oil at extended Drain Intervals in Vehicles with all Types of modern Aftertreatment Systems and High Performance Passenger Car & Light Duty Van Gasoline & DI Diesel Engines that are designed to be capable and OEM-approved for use of Low Viscosity Oils with a minimum HTHS Viscosity of 2.6 mPa*s.
@@seemaab Well I think if the bonnet label says C3 only then you can use C3, as the manual is concerned in general advice for a number of engines and different countries, but is not specific to your engine, so if there is a sticker/label specifying what oil to use I would go with that.
Nice video.I may buy i20 so is really useful. Thank you
You welcome I hope it does help you :)
Excellent video 😁😊
Thanks for the comment 🙂

DaringBeefcake ok but which is correct for the i20, C3 as per bonnet label or A3 as per manual
@@seemaab Well I think if the bonnet label says C3 only then you can use C3, as the manual is concerned in general advice for a number of engines and different countries, but is not specific to your engine, so if there is a sticker/label specifying what oil to use I would go with that.
Thanks for this. used it to do my own oil change on 2010 i20. thanks.
You're welcome!
Do you have a video on how to change the transmission fluid and filter?
Subscribed. Thanks.
Deep Ondroid nice one thank you 😊.
DaringBeefcake Is this i20 Automatic? If yes, then I’d like to share a diagnostic report, may i have your email id ? Thanks.
Deep Ondroid you email me at pedrovivado@ama1.co.uk
That looks overfilled to me..
Petros Petropoulos after running the engine that was down at the full mark, thanks.
