tips, ask for package price of 10 test( unlimited time frame) .. the price will reduce .

there is new engine oil called MOLY liquid @ MOLY , they even got a official store thru shopee , the engine oil bottles looks similar to LIQUI MOLY but the price as cheap as BOLD engine oil .. so be careful

wanted to check something with experts here

this is the spec sheet of the engine oil I've been using in my Picanto since new (5 years+ now)

https://total-cdn-lmdb.afineo.io/ORIGINALS/....pdf?1656677049

just found out in the spec sheet recently it mentioned this



I'm no expert in EO but I know typically fully sync oil change interval is 10k km / 6 months whichever come first, which is what I'm following as well since its set by the SC

is 30k km really possible? or is this under perfect conditions only? seems a bit extreme to me. Probably the engine oil filter would give up first

also another thing is so far i've never done 10k km within 6 months, at most is only 5 - 6k km. but still I would change the EO every 6 months.... can I change to a 12 month interval instead?

you are right , 5 years

Yes very possible
Info and my UOA of AMSOIL signature series on first page

You can consider annual oil changes

But then it still depends on the oil filter right? I think at most 15k km need to change already?

If only annually you can also ignore oil filter durability and just change along your oil change

do we need engine flush ? because i always change my engine oil on time

No need!
EO already contain detergents for engine cleaning

okey

Any good and cheapest acea A3 rated oils? 10w30

Wow I am going treat this thread as my new bible 👍

When you say flushing with chemicals, I wont say its required. The only thing I would consider is if you have a direct injection engine, you might need to consider removing carbon build up through walnut blasting.
Chemical flush cant guarantee 100% cleaning compared to walnut blasting. Not really considered a "flush" but still considered as removing waste.

does every workshop got the walnut blasting ? at my place i don't see any so far , the most they provide engine decarbonizing the one lost of smoke when they press the pedal

Only certain workshops offer that. Most common cars I see using the service is x70, tiguan, and cx5.

no wonder it's hard to find , any recommendations which workshop can do the walnut blast ? around klang valley

Search in google maps will show many results.
