Today my torco sr1r went down the drain plug because of miscommunication between me and the p2 staff. It clicked only around 4000km and cannot be recovered for analysis. Now back to p2 oil and yea sc foc the oil an filter.

Mobil 1 ep do you trust up to 20k km quaza?

didn't tell them reimburse your sr1? tribunal etc la lol...
there's many cases of p2 sc simply replacing spark plugs

no comment on mobil 1, personally prefer performance/boutique engine oils.

The oil already half mark so if want to pay damage like rm140 or so but yea the real miss is the uoa sample. This p2 had a good record, won awards and i had no problem with my car although i abuse it quite alot meaning they did a good job. The car now clicked almost 195,000 km in 6 years plus top speed check one a month so if it's not well maintained things goner already.

Yes, the aircond compressor used oil too, do you change it every 30kkm?

personally ~40k km+ or 2 years.

Greetings, I have a question for the sifus here. Is it okay to pour in Liqui Moly Cera Tec into Motul H-Tech 100 Plus 5w30? Will it give any negative effect on engine? Hope someone can help to clarify this as I'm going for a major service (40k km) this Tuesday. BTW it's for Inspira. Any advice will be much appreciated. TIA

hmm coincidentally i never did that combo before as i've since then stopped ceratec and the last time usage was on amsoil 0w20 in my inspira.

Why stop using Cera Tec? I thought it's good for engine protection?

Hi sifus. Was wondering which type / brand of engine oil should I use for better fc and overall power increase? I'm a kenari ezi 04 owner and has been using shell helix hx5 10w30 for the last couple of oil change. Thinking of trying semi synthetic for a change. Any good recommendations? Budget below RM120. Thx in advance.

Hi,

according specification from these 2 EO, which of this better?

Mobil 1 New Life 0w-40

Total Quartz INEO MC3 5w-40

With that price... I think the closest is Liqui Moly MoS2 10w30 (rm125 ~ rm130).

Didn't manage to buy Addinol Super Longlife 10w40 due to unexpected causes.
Instead, i was advised to try PetroCanada Duron-E XL 15W40 at similar price of RM130.

paper specs alone, easily mobil 1

Motul H-TECH series on Group 3 or Group 4 base stock? Some say it is group 3.

Or which part in Motul website that mention its base stock type?

Wanna ask, is it good to do interval ATF oil change than follow the service book whereby change at 100k mileage?

ATF... the max 40k km then change. Better if 20k km. I almost did follow Toyota SC stupid recommendation on 100k km, I felt uneasy and change at 80k km... and it smells terrible and that bright red pinkish ATF WS become like kopi-o.

Ok, I was worry since I daily drive a lot...will get it change soon. Thanks

AFAIK motul did not disclose it's base stock.
most likely not group 3 as iinm European ruling forbids non group 4/5 to be labeled as full synthetic.

even if it is though it shouldn't matter if it is group 3 so long it meets api certifications/specifications along with other manufacturer specifications and of course it's own technical data sheet/specs.

personally, group 3 may even be better as group 5 ester have issues of swelling seals/softening them, while group 4 PAO have issues on shrinking seals.
group 3 did not specifically have any drawbacks other than being *supposedly* inferior than group 4/5.

Waiting for M1 oil filters only to be available in feb.
