Recently the workshop that I used to service said the Petronas
Synthium 800 5w30 was no more....now replaced with 10w40/10w30 I ask around Petronas and they also say the same. only 10w available on shelves. I've serviced using this oil for many times already and collected the left over oil. I've nearly got a bottle of 4L( enuf for 1 service) now they say no more in production so how? can anyone verify this? |

So why not looks else where for 5w30 which is API SN, ILSAC GF-5 approved? Be very cautious not to choose oil without official API or ILSAC approval.... All official approvals can be checked here http://eolcs.api.org/, it is always up to date... I changed to this oil after realizing that perodua's oil was API-SL. which was inferior compare to API-SM? any oil can recommend which is API-SN and ILSAC GF-5? |
