1 liter packs for engine oil are available. I bought 3.5L + 1L pack for my cousin's car last week. Grade 5W/30. Brand was AC Delco. Cost: 3.5L = Rs 1243/- & 1L = Rs. 365/-

Which are other good engine oils we can use if ACDelco not available.
Many thanks.

Idemitsu, LiquiMoly, Total, etc are brands which I will get without battling an eyelid. If you can source Castrol directly from a good distributor (as there are many fakes around), then add that to the list too. :)

Refer to this thread for more options: https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/techn...ml#post4207531

Thanks Saket. Is there any way to spot fakes of Castrol? And are there fakes of other brands you mentioned?

If I have to buy Castrol, I'd head straight to a genuine distributor. Rest of the brands are kind of lesser known ones for a layman and hence, chances of fakes are less. So, you may try either online from sites like Amazon (& Amazon fulfilled sellers) or from a good shop in your city. Or you can even get one from Maruti Auth. service center. I believe they sell over the counter. Just make sure the grade suits your vehicle.
