Sorry I have no idea. That was the staff told me...

Not sure which one is use when service car, only know fully syn oil

How to check and see ah??

I see, then it will be low grade one for fuel saving feature.

Never use Semi syn oil before. However, I feel pick up is lack of power by using low grade fully syn oil engine as recommended by SC

Probably need to try for semi syn for next service.

But once use the Semi syn, there is no 25% discount voucher can be use next time

oh? 15% discount voucher will be given if use for Semi syn oil???

If yes then can think about it.

why only use high grade fully syn oil when warranty is over??

Oh I see, ya last for 10k service once then

Alright I shall try for Semi syn oil next service 

Go for the fully syn 0w30 oil (red bottle).

There are 2 fully synthetic oil from Honda.

SN0W20 (light green bottle)
SN0W30 (red bottle)

The red bottle is the higher grade fully synthetic oil. That is why it cost a lot more than the green bottle. In addition, the viscosity of the red bottle oil is similar to semi synthetic, thus your claim lack of pick up doesn't make sense.

if you are servicing outside, there are a lot more other good grade oil you can use

i am using liqui moly mos 10/40 and i am still servicing it every 5k

if you go for the fully syn, i am sure u can do more than 7k per interval

you dont have to stick to honda oils, u can try torco, q8, millers and of course liqui moly

check here for a rough estimate on the other brands price

Btw, back to your question about the 30k service. Here's the invoice breakdown;

Item	Qty	Unit Price	Discount	Nett Price	Amount
SN 0W-20 FULLY SYN	3.6	36.90	25%	27.68	99.63
WASHER DRAIN 14MM	1	1.91	N/A	1.91	1.91
OIL FILTER CARTRID	1	27.89	25%	20.92	20.92
ELEMENT ASSY,AIR	1	78.30	15%	66.56	66.56

*Prices not including GST

Based on car manual, Oil change should top up 3.5 liter of engine oil.. No more, no less. It could be they have billed wrongly.

I've never tried the 0w20 oil but if people said that oil feels under power, possibility could be due to the lower viscosity of they oil. Lower viscosity will have less oil pressure within the engine.

Anyway, i feel it should feel more power as the engine crankcase can move more effortlessly due to the lower viscosity.
