Brand: TorqNm
Model: e3 Fuel Conserving Synthetic Motor Oil
Viscosity: 10w-30
Vehicle: 2011 Proton Saga FLX
Feedback: - OCI at every 7,000 km - Engine only starts to feel sluggish a bit when surpassing 6,500km. - Fuel saving (previously using Castrol magnatec = 11.2km/L, now 12.4km/L) - good pick up and engine doesn't sound harsh/strained - fast warm up (less than 1 min to warm up to 2 bars)
Reference: NIL

Bro quazacolt, when reach the time u drain the TR5 can u check for me whether your oil color is black/brown or black/red? When i drain mine is black/red color. So far i never see black/red color..usually black/brown. It just for comparison. Btw LM 10w30 hard to find in jb. Mostly it out of stock.

Mostly it out of stock.  the oil's original color is golden ish (like your typical engine oil, unlike LM being grey/black ish), how come turn to red le? nvm i will keep you posted, still got 3-4k+ KM till next OCI  (will be back to LM  )

engine oil in turbocharged engines evaporate faster as turbo needs engine oil to lubricate all the parts and spin the turbine blade. true?

Correct. Superchargers do not face the same issue as turbo, it has it's own oil and does not recirculate the heat from exhaust back to the engine.

Force induction engine is very nice to drive. Lots of torque n power. But must be discipline when comes to oil change.fresh oil is critical upmost important. If not sludge issue..big problem
