Problems after 15w40 was used on my 4Jx1

Hi All,

first time Ive posted on the forum, so please accept my appologies if I ratttle on to long. The issue I have started a couple of weeks ago when for once I asked a local mechanic to do an oil and filter change on my Isuzu as I was busy. The mechanic was specifically told to use 5w30 but decided to use 15w40 instead without telling me.

The truck ran a litttle rough for the 4 or 5 km drive home . The morning after it coughed spluttered and died.

Obviously I was not happy with the mechanic when I found out what had caused the isssue. I have done two oil and filter changes myself since, using castrol 5w30 edge.

I have still got a vehicle that idles very badly, sometimes loses power and cuts out on me while driving. I have had it scanned with a tech 2 and it appears there are no fault codes.

As I am at a complete losss as to what to do next I would appreciate any advice that you guys could pass on to me

 

regards Mark 22
