guyz i'm going for 10k first service...
previously using chemlube 10w30, can i know for 10k first service use what brand prefer? still stick to 10w30? i heard ppl say proton fl only can stick to 10w40... is it true? was thinking of 5w30..
Hi...
Feel yu can either continue with 10W30 (if yu've no complaints abt engine) or changeover to 10W40.
Reason?
Both are approved SAE grades as long as they fulfill the recommended API Classification.
5W30 and 10W30 are SAME SAE grades except former for colder winter temp & latter for not so cold winter temp.
The ?W value does NOT apply in Msia. No winter!!
Pls refer to yr User Manual if in doubt of suitability. There shld b a graphic table for suitable grades.
ps. All suitable/recommended fluids 2b used in car are given in User Manual.
Frankly a simple mineral oil is gud enuf as long as it fulfills the SAE grades & API classification. Other than that, it's more of a PERSONAL choice & Affordabilty.

looks good, but macam susah nak pasang =\
Agreed.

Unless yr NEW car has juz been delivered 2yu...very clean! Else a lot of prep work eg cleaning, is needed.
Besides the stuck-on seal is an Extra...if yu kno wat it means...
IMHO better 2go 4OEM items if available. Costs more tho.
However, less hassle, easier DIY & the BEST part is...
it looks like it came with the car!...juz my 1 sen?
