That time I use Magnatec for 9k cos no money to change oil.. I very sayang my car one.. Sayang more than my gf.. Last time my gf also complaint i use more care taking care of my car than her..

RM178

Saw a lot of these around TarCollege loh.. Now im waiting to ram one of them..

actually xW-30 engine oil is far better than xW-40. I used xW-30 engine oil on my persona and it was fastastic. quite a lot of difference in terms of acceleration and engine response as the oil is lighter. Now i use back xW-40 in my recent oil change because i wanted to use up the remaining 4L bottle of xW-40 oil if not go to waste. And since then, i immediately felt the difference as switching from xW-30 to xW-40 i immediately felt the engine is heavier. I am gonna switch back to xW-30 in my next oil change.

how much u bought for the idemitsu oil????

My wife used to say the same thing abt my City....but I always mention I no need to take care of wife coz she already take care of me very well....so since nothing to take care, I care for car lor....or if she wants me to find other alternatives, I can always find mistresses and take very good care wan....I think she relents and "let" me continue take care of the car ESPECIALLY since she's driving it now..

not cheap also hor... got bulk buy?

can "tapao" them?

used it for 10k. yeap, loves the lighter feel on xW-30 oil
yea.... at this point still kinda subjective la i think. hahaha. anyway, just another review when using xw-30 engine oil. constantly going outstation long journey drives at high speed ranging from 100 to 150kmh for 6 hours. end of the OCI, i have yet to do any topping up of the oil and its still pretty clean (Toyota semi synthetic SM grade oil used).

humm... we'll see how it goes end of the day. I become the guinea pig here loh using xw-30 engine oil....

I modified in my original post...loves to modify instead of create new post....

Any to rephrase...

Price for FS is abt RM198 to RM200 inclusive labor. Bought 2 cans 5W40 outside for RM140 only but still testing on both my city....hoping its original (it should be coz I think since Idemitsu only sell direct to workshop and not available on retail, it minimize potential for fakes (fakes wanted volume...parts shop sells)...but you never know...

Semi 10W40 is abt RM110 kuah...with labor.

Added on October 7, 2011, 12:05 pmSo far my City pistons looks ok...so I think no need magnatec kuah...coz the Idemitsu confirm super clean ASSUMING you service every 5K to 6K. I believe that is a major part of the reason for the super clean non contaminated shiny shiny internal engine...

If like Zen, always drags till no power, don't think even if use Grade 4 FS, it can maintain that cleanliness..

Haha...loves to use Zen as example....but frankly lots of ppl drag till no power only change...engine cepat die wan...but in the end depends on luck..

The only way to know if damage is done is to open open engine and see if piston or bore gap scratch due to insufficient thinkness. I think if you constantly go at 100 to 100km/h especially for long drive. Weight 40 is the one you should use, no doubt abt that. If most city drive and speed usually don't exceed 110km/h, weight 30 "might" still be manageable tho I still would go by the manual..

As I mention b4, lube clean either means your engine is clean OR it might be its not doing enuf cleaning.

My City using the FS by 1K to 2.5K, already going towards dark brown...open up engine super clean. That means IT IS DOING whats its other key function is about....cleaning and SUSPENDING contaminants in its liquid. If after 10K still light brown...I will have doubt abt the lube cleaning AND suspension capabilities....NO WAY a lube in our weather and dusty air can maintain light brown after 5-6K..

I saw the Myvi, normal number plates only, but tampal those Bekas Police plague, Rela plague, those useless Negeri emblem all.. Like flower car wei... But too bad still parking at TarC roadside.. hahaha..
One thing good bout Japanese stuffs is that they really do proper R&D b4 marketing a product, and wont cut corners to achieve the quality standards. So when u are using a high grade stuff from Japan u can be assured of the quality and reputation of the manufacturer..

Next round I dunno which oil im going to try, another 4.5k km b4 my next service but i want to change earlier like after 3.5k mileage. Currently on my mind is Castrol Edge Titanium, Eneos fully Sync, Idemitsu Fully Sync and Mobil 1 Gold Super Sync.

Hehe...dun always think Japan's product is good... i work at Japan's Comp JVC for 2 years. all Indonesia, bangla, myammar workers doing in production. dun even understand malay/english. u think how the production ppl teach them to work like machine? Even the "R&D" is japanese but their manufacture factory at malaysia, myamar, china, cambodia, vietnam....

u referring to me right? if u are, then well...... i dunno, guess i like it this way... heheheh. the cover to me is a ugly design because there is no creativity in it and it looks like a box. actually the main reason for me to remove it is because i do not want my engine to have accumulated engine oil stains due to the mechanic's "accident" while pouring engine oil during oil change.

used to have it on mine is black top version

Better than those local company which emphasis quantity and profit rather than quality.
But that JVC really pariah one, always people go in and go out one.

yiii look like u know someone working at JVC or u r ex-JVC?

No lah. Only if see job advertisement sure got JVC one. Repeat same post somemore.

haha... tat must be my previous position, software engineer. tat time we whole group resigned in a month including team leader. can say we dissolve the whole group n left nothing behind.

Who was the 'last man standing' there? Working environment there sure sucks.
Actually, everywhere also sucks, just that some are more sucks than others.

If the pay is high, work with our otherworldly 'kawan' also can.. (me)

Ya, with 7k per month is really worth it. Why don't u leave some 'present' for them? Maybe they won't kacau you later.

tonight you buy some tit-bits put at pantry then you can work OT without kacau, if it works every time you want OT do the same thing......

I scared I leave present for them they follow me more often lah.. Expecting for more mah..

Btw, mana ada 7k per month..
