i'm using perodua viva elite 1.0 auto..all these while using PERODUA ENGINE OIL (SEMI syns if not wrong) with the grading of 5W - 30
but my parent went n took the car and service at ENEOS using ENEOS(mineral oil) with the grading of 10W- 30
my bro complain said 10w -30 is thick for my car..the best use 5w - 30( will the car engine spoil??)
2nd thing regarding mineral oil..i know use semi syns better...but can i on the next service use back SEMI SYNS??my bro said the car engine wil give problem with FROM SEMI DOWNGRADE TO MINERAL THEN UPGRADE TO SEMI BACK

QUOTE(ceo684 @ May 18 2011, 07:26 PM) Perodua used to use 10w30 also and I dun see anyone's engine blowing up yet.. your bro is a bit too anal lah. As long as its xw-30 and changed on time it will be alright. Even if you use mobil1 but not changing the oil in 20 years will lead to problems. means 10w - 30 is reasonable for my car? if yes then good oh..but then izit true for the DOWNGRADING N UPGRADING oil problem?? i know should not change the type of oil frequently.. should stick to the same oil the best..but this is the 1st time i using MINERAL OIL instead of SEMI..after this i will use back SEMI..its ok right? |
