QUOTE(ultramaman @ Mar 19 2012, 09:23 AM) interesting. i don't think additive is needed as their semi syn oil has been rated SM/CF...since you save money using tesco brand semi syn oils, do u guys enhance the oil further by adding oil addictive ? ( for e.g revo or ceratec and similar?) so the quality won't be too bad... Castrol Magnatec Semi Syn is being rated SM/CF too.. Added on March 19, 2012, 4:23 pmbtw..i don't dare to use Tesco oil on my new Nissan.. only use semi syn for my iswara. my new car used Castrol Edge Fully syn... don't risk anything with the engine..  if old car, why not use semi syn for price of mineral oil?

QUOTE(ultramaman @ Mar 19 2012, 05:39 PM) hows the castrol edge treating u ? better than mobil 1 ? yup...i feel that castrol edge is a lot better than mobil 1... both in FC and power... but but but maybe i can't actually compare them, yet..not fair..  as castrol edge i use is 0w40, mobil 1 is 20w50... both is fully syn...so it's normal mobil 1 cause my car under power, oil too thick... Tesco only sell 20w50 Mobil 1 fully syn... after using 20w50 once, I won't buy 20w50 engine oil anymore... |

QUOTE(mdnurman @ Mar 20 2012, 12:01 AM) 20W50 fully syn? i think fully syn should be 0W or 5W... need to look up in wiki.. as far as i know... 0W-5W fully syn, 10W-15W semi-syn and 20W mineral multigrade thats why ur like under power... fully syn will be the thinnest while 20W will be the thickest (in 0W-20W range) ops....my mistake...really need to look up regarding th oil Added on March 20, 2012, 12:04 amjust checked mobil website.... mobil 1 20W-50 full syn is for motorcycle engine i think should be 5w50 fully syn... it's RM149 by then... |
