You can try other brands. Jus not sport or lowering shocks.

It might be slightly or no better

You must go for which ever come first. if your mileage is still 8k but your car is already 6month old, by right you should service your car. Car component lifetime is measured by time & usage. different part may have different usage & lifetime. this is also to ensure that you may qualify for free service package (labour charge) offered by honda.

If u worry about warranty. Whichever comes first.

If not, do so when you like. 1 or 2 months is not a big deal although might not be the best.

Oh, but the manufacturing date was still quite recent.

Anyways, changing to redline soon as the distributor got the 0-20 in already. Bit costly though.

Is the 0W-20 too thin of engine oil? If RM120 for fully synthetic genuine engine oil of 4 liter , its really dirt cheap...whats the brand of the EO? Its selling at SC?

I buy from them a lot of years already. From my other cars to this la of course.

Actually, this are honda SC oils. Because everytime i buy there is no receipts except for the oil filter and the crush washer.

So, one time out of no reason i ask the boss which quite close adi anyways. And he revealed this are actually oils by SC staff and sold to them.

So, put your thinking caps on and think how this oils manage to get to them la. It's either they manage to sneak it from their stockhold or there is some hanky panky going on with the oils going into your car during oil change.

Speculate away.

Actually, it is around that price after the 15% discount in SC during service.

As to whether it is too thin. I think it is ok for normal drives but dun really feel it is very durable in case you really want to stretch it to a 10k service interval.

If you punch it hard for long durations. I do realize that the oil level will drop a bit after 3 to 4k KMs. So, in some ways it is a bit thin if you push the motor very hard.

You are not one of those who think old cars piston skirting getting thin and think of using more viscous oil to solve problem, right?

Actually, others nowhere near near rm200 la. But still more expensive la. My redline also costs around rm58 per lit only (include gst la)
