PRODUCT DETAILS
Which Motor Oil for the Toyota Auris?
The Toyota VVT-i requires a fully synthetic oil (factory fill 5W30 / 0W20 on some versions). If your car consumes oil, 5W50 is recommended; if it does not, 5W30. Both are offered in the kit as Brava Extreme 9000 fully synthetic.
Toyota Auris Oil Capacity
- Engine: 1.6 / 1.8 VVT-i (2ZR-FE)
- Oil capacity: ~4.2 L (may vary by engine code)
- Kit: 5 L Extreme 9000 (with a reserve) + A980 NanoComplex 300 ml
Toyota Auris 1.6 / 1.8 VVT-i (2ZR-FE) Oil Burning and Oil Consumption Problem
The 1.6 / 1.8 VVT-i (2ZR-FE) engine of the Toyota Auris (2007-2013) is known for oil consumption. Toyota officially acknowledged this problem: on VVT-i engines from this period the thin/light piston rings let oil into the combustion chamber, and certain series were repaired free of charge even after the warranty had expired. The correct viscosity and clean oil are critical in bringing consumption under control.
Oil Burning Prevention Kit for the Toyota Auris
- Auris that consumes oil → 5 L Brava Extreme 9000 5W50 + A980 NanoComplex — a thicker film that noticeably reduces consumption (the reserve is ideal for topping up).
- No consumption / protection → 5 L Brava Extreme 9000 5W30 (factory viscosity) + A980 NanoComplex.
How Does A980 NanoComplex Reduce Oil Consumption?
It strengthens the oil film and reduces oil escaping past the thin rings, cuts oil passage into the combustion chamber and noticeably reduces consumption.
Other Common Problems of the Toyota Auris
- Piston ring wear (the root cause): On ZR family VVT-i engines the thin rings let oil into the combustion chamber. In severe cases renewing the rings/pistons is a job for an authorised service centre; the correct oil (a thicker film) + A980 noticeably reduces consumption and slows its progress.
- Water pump leak: A water pump leak can appear at high mileage; the cooling system should be checked.
- VVT-i valve noise / sensor: There can be a rattle on cold start or a VVT-i sensor fault; clean, correct oil protects the VVT-i mechanism.
Note: Outside this period, Toyota is generally reliable. This kit targets the oil side of the Toyota Auris; renewing the rings is a job for an authorised service centre.
Toyota Auris Oil Burning Symptoms
- Blue/grey smoke from the exhaust
- Frequent oil top-ups (consumption of up to 2-3 L per 10,000 km)
- Oil warning light
- Oil-fouled spark plugs
Complete Maintenance and Additive Recommendation for the Toyota Auris

Will this kit stop oil burning on the Toyota Auris?
A980 + 5W50 noticeably reduces consumption; unless there is severe ring damage, most cars come close to normal.
