Myth on poorer FC after servicing
dareindie:
Just send mine into Sparkcare for 40k servicing since it was covered under TWM warranty, no choice. Tell them I wanted 5w40 and when they print out the invoice, 5w50 was poured in. Now, mine felt sluggish when moving off, previously was using 0w40. Now monitoring my FC. Damn.

for my recently bought 2nd hand latio.
clarence:
5W50 is way too thick for Latio.
5W50 is best suited for older cars or turbo charged engines.
'40' is the right choice.
You should ask them to drain out the 5W50 engine oil.
