Just have my mechanic to drain my Eneos 10w40 oil. Less than 6k and it's dark like coffee, not to mentioned feels heavy and sluggish. After changing to Liqui Moly 10w40, notice the acceleration is somewhat, silky smooth.

Silky should be the word instead of light as I have used eneos 5w30 before. It feels light, but the engine sounds like going to explode.

hard to compare.
because now the feeling of comparison is with 6k old oil.

change foreman. If they can't discipline themselves, or their workers for that matter, whould you expect them to do a better job since they cant even perform a simple task of obeying the F mark on the dipstick?

6k is 6k, but a good oil should not deteriorate in quality after 6k, if 7-8k i understand as it's a semi synthetic

Oil kept too long, the dirt is being circulated only. Anyway, even the oil can last, the additives will break down.

Some advice please.

4B11 first 1000km changing to full synthetic the SC gave me choice between Petronas 3000 and a Shell fully Syn.

Which is better? Or should I even go fully at all?

Thanks peeps rclxms.gif

choose low viscosity engine oil.. 5w-20/5w-30/0w-30 if possible because 4b11 are designed to use low viscosity engine oil.

been using Valvoline 15w50 for over a year now on my old Saga. B4 this im using Castrol 20w50 mineral

about the Valvoline, great oil. Can use until 8k km...even approaching 8k the engine still feel smooth. But if got budget it's recommended to change every 5-6k km

this one, around rm120 per 4l bottle

Check your car manual for recommended viscosity.

Other then that the 10w-40 SS should be good....

Not cheap for SS 4L only......

Most SS oil cost around RM100.
Shell SS on offer at Tesco is 5L packing and when promo is only around RM89

Nope, these 10w-38 are FS oil. Don't look at the price of RM100. It was an offer price.
Normal price is way higher...... sad.gif

It was some sort of anniversary thing that they celebrated. I was shock also to see that, but I did not buy because it was meant more for NA cars, and my other NA car is using SS only.... blush.gif
