Engine Oil - All About It

[jermitano]

wala naman po akong galit or angst sa castrol hehehe...but most of my friends that use it suffer almost the same fates with their cars...masyadong maraming naiiwang deposits sa makina nila...we tried another approach para mapatunayan...one friend completely had his engine rebuilt and port polished...so wala remnants ng oil...tapos gamit sya ng castrol for about a year and a half...nung sumunod na tune grabe ang latak na naiwan...di bagay dito castrol...masyado sya malapot...

fully synthetic mas ok kasi mas matagal bago palitan tsaka ganda performance ng engine.

have used Castrol (yung 20-50w) twice before. ang experience ko is after 4 months of using, hindi pa din maitim yung oil, which means, it either contains strong cleaners or it does not work.

 

compared to Shell 20-50w, Valvoline and Havoline, after two months of using, dark na yung oil, which means, it cleans the engine of sludges and deposits.

synthetic is the way to go. longer change oil intervals.

i have been using synthetic since forever...i had one car umabot nang 300,000 miles(almost 480,000kilometers) although sabi nang mga magazine pag lumagpas na nang 100,000 miles dapat yung high mileage oil na ang ginagamit,

Still Shell Helix. Palit every 4000 kilometers.

I used to used Shell helix which was pure synthetic oil at more than Php4,000 per change. I had to use it because it was specified for Opel Omega. It was too expensive and the car broke down. Now with my Toyota Camry, I only use regular multigrade, the car is good and maintainance is cheap. The car only goes for regular service and nothing more.

 

Conclusion, regular is ok, just SAE 10-40 or 10-50.

ano mahusay? regular or synthetic engine oil? sabi ng iba kapag luma na raw

sasakyan - synthetic daw gamitin, yung iba naman pag bago kotse - synthetic daw.

yung iba naman, regular oil daw basta wag lang papaitimin - change oil agad.

ANO BA TALAGA?

 

 

sa akin madalas na oil change lang. Kaya kahit hindi synthetic, ok lang. Tsaka pag hindi umitim ang oil mo, may problema ang nabili mong engine oil kasi may detergent na content ang engine oils eh. Kaya pag umitim 'yan, alam mo na ginagawa nya ang trabaho nya.

regular oil lang, basta regular din ang change oil

[mikev]

i use synthetic oil(motul) and have it changed regularly at an average of 7k-8km kms.
