Can I change between engines oils? for example in the past i use semi-synthetic now i wanna try synthetic, or I want to try using other brands..

Will this cause any side effect to my car?

as salam,


review for Duron E Fully 5w40 in my Saga BLM....now reaching 10000km....still the engine not sluggish, smooth even at high speed(errr..my high speed at 120-140kmj only...hehe)

dont know when to change it...but already change the oil filter and put a slight top up...

AFAIK,

the oil i'm using meant to Extended Drain Interval....


by using good TBN number of EO + good additive package, it will clean your engine and runs your engine smoother...and plus with pure base oil, the oil freshness will last longer..

and also find a good oil filter that can last longer...

my last UOA with synthetic blend engine oil(after more than 15000km), it's still has around 40% of freshness oil and still can be use...so again, depend on what brand of oil you're using...

just my 34.5sen..

Planning to go for eneos or mobil 1 0W-20 fully synthetic oil for my cr-z as i need the instant lubrication for the start/stop feature, anyone knows any shop which carries these 2 brands for a reasonable price?

Now more and more car manufacturers specify xW30 as service fill.....Proton Campro series, all Peroduas, Toyota Avanza, Honda City, Kia Forte and Optima, Hyundai Elantra and Sonata in Thailand, Singapore, All Chevrolets (Dexos requirement), Peugeot prince engine series (turbo and non turbo) and many more have joined the bandwagon of xW30.... xW40 is more common for diesel engine oil used by trucks and buses....
*
yes..you're right sir.....moreover, the xw30 like the API SN are now come with turbocharger protection and resource conserving....

even the big one like Camry, Teana also using the xw30 oil.....

but there is no harm to choose others xw-ww....it depend on your budget and information....not all Malaysians are known better about engine oil...especially when most of them already servicing at "bawah pokok" workshop... sweat.gif

I checked on Google. Apparently its synthetic + dunno wat...so its semi? Any idea is this oil good?
*
AFAIK, all amsoil oil are 100% Synthetic aka Fully Syn(as we Malaysian calls)....their base oil are not from crude oil(petroleum) but are 100% produce in Laboratory using the group IV and Group V additive....

Amsoil is one of the very good oil..like the Redline eo.....but as always, everything good, we must pay the price...it is hard to find any amsoil oil for below than RM200/4liter

also, Amsoil claims that their oil can be use up to 15000miles(miles not kilometers..)...is it proven??i dont know about 15000miles, but one of my friend using it for 15000km already...still smooth and good...(but need to change the oil filter for 5000-7000km to prevent it from clogging)...

i hear oil treatment is useless is it a fact or myth? rclxub.gif

Oil Treatment / Engine Treatment = Additive

if the engine oil is very2 good, then no need for those engine/oil treatment....even if your eo is not good, it is better change the oil than topup the treatment..

Well, spending 800 on engine oil is kinda overdoing it la. I don't mind spending 150 on my engine though its a Kelisa, but with the few hundred extras, I could do some repairing work once a while or slowly collect for something else =)
*
yes...you got the point...a Rm800 for a engine oil for marhaen like me is not the choice

unless you want enter some competition like Drag, Circuit racing..then it will make sense...

no harm even you use the mineral base or semi syn if you can get a very good reputable brand, good viscosity index, good flash point, good additive package....

CNI Motobest
10-40W Semi Syn
10,000km.
MYR 100.00 4L

Previously used Mobil 1 Full syn MYR 190.00 4L. I brought leftover to the CNI shop to test on the Falex machine. Mobil 1 surrender (smoking) after 2KG load on it whereas Motobest up to 3KG load still rotating with sound but no smoke.

My turbo kicks in faster and less blowby with motobest. Downside is becoz its a semi-syn oil you need to change it more frequently than full-syn oils.

FALEX machine??hahaha...

watch this video to know the truth about this machine...
