Lucas also not bad, can try it out...about rm60 per litre for fully syn

im using it for my cars

Review for Lexus FS 5W-40 oil.

Power is there, but I don't really know the effects last long or not as I've just used it for 1000KM mileage. One bad thing about it is, it increases my car's FC. Now my car can get only 7km/l with normal driving. Not sure any part of my car has gone wrong or not, but i suspect it's the main culprit. Hesitating to change the oil back to SS tho (due to it's still fresh as only 1000KM traveled), really cannot tahan the FC. RM50 get less than 200KM.

whats the viscosity index? it could be a bit thicker than most performance/good SS

hell, good FS will cost WAY OVER rm200. if you're paying around/less than rm200, you should be prepared for what you're getting.

I'm driving Persona Campro IAFM
Brand: Eneos
Model: 10w 40
Price: RM90 4 Litre

feedback: better acceleration, quiet engine, save fuel

next to try Liqui Moly

Yea it's cheap fs oil.. stated the viscousity is 5w-40.. maybe it's really a bit thicker than performance ss oil

there's a further viscosity index chart for higher temperatures. example:

I cannot find the spec of Lexus FS oil in google But somehow I found this from the other forum

I contacted the suppliers, and they said I would need to contact Lexus for information on viscosity at 40 C/100 C, VI and TBN. When I contacted the dealership, all I was told was it's "special oil for Lexus, very good oil"...which doesn't mean sheet. The supplier produces their own 5W-40 full synthetic, but the specs do not match (SL/CF vs SM, etc.).

from what you've quoted, i guess its time to steer clear from this oil then

Yea.. gonna go back to LM.. need to fund for ceratec.. lambda primer + fuel to clean the entire system

+1 i'm planning to look for thundercid god as well before my next car service but ceratec issit really necessary for a 5 year old car? Using Revo atm. quite good leh.

im driving a 12+ year old car.
it helps if you high rev, otherwise you wont need it if you're already on LM SS and/or revo

i've posted my review on thundergod_cid's LM sales thread btw, can read up and decide for yourself

Thanks Quazacolt =)

Shiyau : Cheap oils dont last.

hehe high rev ah? not really la. what can a savvy do lol. usually drive at around 4k rpm only

got visit you next round for a couple of things!

I am one of the Lexus 5W-40 users, it help my Toyota Corolla AE111 to achieve even better FC woh (Previous using 10W-40 ELF semi)... But 1 thing i sure, is the oil easy to thin.. Especially around 5000km, the oil level will drop a bit below the Max level... By the way, my engine is 4A-GE 20V and i rev quite a lot.. It is a cheap fully syn oil, which i think is better compare to some semi-syn selling at the same price... Anyway, since it is so cheap.. I also change the oil around 7000km..

The reason why FC worsen, i believe your previous oil viscosity must be lower.. Coz i experience it when i help my sister P. Kelisa to change oil to Lexus 5W-40 (Ori is Petronas 5W-30) the car felt quite heavy a bit and the FC worsen..

why savvy cant high rev? try flooring the pedal see?

haha gila meh. usually ill do that when i first change oil after that ill go back to normal 110km/h. I'm a careful driver ok... LOL

Perhaps it doesn't suit my car. Btw, previous oil viscosity lower? Maybe LM SS oil viscosity is really lower than Lexus FS oil.. lol.. higher viscosity means thicker, lower viscosity means thinner.. By right 5W-40 should be thinner than 10W-40 right?

5w40 n 10w40 no differences......refer to the number behind

just got my 2nd LM... but this time 10w40.... 10w30 is really nice.... balik kampung to penang 5000rpm all the way lol.... (me using kancil 880) and still can go further but scared lol... but due to a problem with my engine i decided to use a thicker oil and i still considered LM as my best bet....

lets see how it goes..... btw... now days i just love driving my old car even more lol!
