dlastknight Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I have a Mitsu l200 endeavor that I use for a daily beater... never lets me down, especially on baha days... I use it to haul big ass stuff, very convenient when doing grocery... well anyways I saw the new strada and damn... its freakin nice... thinkin of buyin 1... coz of the turbo, I bet it rides sweeter than the previous stradas... coz thats my only complain with the L200 its a bit slow... but 4 a daily beater ok na rin... tops speed on the endeavor tho is 155kph thats on d expressway going 2 subic... hirap paabutin ng mas mataas pa bcoz of the slow acceleration...

CivicVTi Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 In my book, additives are just a waste of money. Whether you own a gas or diesel engined vehicle, the most important thing is to change your motor oil at the correct interval as recommended by the manufacturer. And use high quality oil filters (original if possible) and the correct viscosity oil based on our climate (again as recommended by our local manufacturer). Quote Link to comment

Recommend ko wag mo na sa kanila dalhin pag magpapa change-oil. Bilin mo na lang ung filter sa kanila tapos sa labas mo na ipa-service para makapili ka pa ng brand of oil na preferred mo at para makatipid ka din sa gastos. I use Shell Helix 20/50 para sa Civic ko but iba ang ratings para sa diesel engine. Try mo din ang Shell brand, who knows baka makuha mo din ung improved ride kahit walang additives. Baka kasi ung ginagamit nila na oil sa casa eh pang Japan ang ratings. Sa Honda kasi ang nilalagay nila sa kotse eh 15/40 rating....dapat 15/50 or 20/50 para mas suitable sa hotter climate natin.
