Hi all situ, will get my 2010 honda civic fd1 soon. 40k mileage
Just want opinion should I go for 10w-40 or 5w-30 is more suitable?

Thanks

Yea used it before but the effects last for the 1st few thousand only...but still its good stuff...

Wana try ceratect by LM...same effect as the torco MPZ?

This is just my 2cent about the range of oil that we use for our car....when i was reading it on the internet... The lower value indicate the viscosity of the oil during cold and higher value is viscosity during high temperature...reason why they use for example 0W30...is during cold country, during cold start to protect the parts or when using a brand new engine where the piston are still virgin...so its tighter... But as tear and wear begin pistons gets looser and thats when the mechanic will recommend 10/15W30 oils...this is regardless any brand there are...

Just my opinion...do correct me if my info is wrong...

Hi, im new with engine oil and im planning to change it soon but duno which brand to choose. Im using total 15-40w now and plan to use semi this time. I heard liqui moly is good but duno where can get it(near kepong area). Last few day go to mid valley to buy but the shop closed LOL, quite dissapointed. Now still looking where can get the oil hope you all can help ^~^. Or anyone use eneos molybdenum b4? Any feedback? Sorry for too many question hahaha.

no, value before w is just for oil fluidity (viscosity) so that during cold weather your old is still fluid and not harden (or some cases, frozen) so that it may flow and protect your engine.

no relation with piston ring/seal virgin or wear as frozen/harden engine oil won't do shit regardless of piston ring/seal conditions.

for malaysia, feel free to ignore that value as we won't ever have cold weather; not in the near future anyways.

can find from automotive garage, such as sellers like thundergod_cid

Been using 10w40 semi since I bought the car.
Since last service I'm feeling a bit of slow reaction and acc then it used to behave..
Should I change the engine grade or brand ? Any suggestion?
Anyone sifu can recommend engine oil ?

Thank for the info. I just now contact him already but his location is at subang quite far from me sad case... Any seller that you may know in kepong area? If cant then i think need to do with postage but the postage fees is quite expensive anyway.

mainly because of good reviews...

i enjoy driving around and i don't mind traveling a lil to meet a friend

Maybe.. Today i went jusco and nearly service my car with eneos molybdenum that came with package that i think is quite affordable as cost only 115 but ended up they have too many car to work with and need to wait a long time then i just go home haha... But i saw some reviews that the eneos semi used around 5000km will start become noisy as am used eneos 2 years ago for a 3 to 4 times service (but 20-50 la), when it came nearly the time to change EO it really will bcome very noisy and sluggish like the car was pulling a lorry zzzz
