Plan to use either Liqui Moly or Castrol Magnetec semi oil for my next service, which one is good for my persona??

Wait for tesco offer RM129 for Mobil super 3000 (full syn), or Total Quartz Ineo MC3 @ RM135.
If must choose between LM and Magnacrap, I vote for LM.

I once saw Tesco got offer but not dare to buy scare the quality and where does the EO come from

Tesco promote the oil openly yet local Mobil/Total distributor didn't make a sound. I think tesco won't be that stupid.

Just got my 3 cans of 300V 5W-30 for use in my car. Will flush it out the old Castrol stuff and see if there's any difference in the BMW.

able to get your hands on spectrum analysis?

I've got a spectrum analyzer at home but not the type for a UOL

I asked if our labs at work can do it, but they're flat out busy for now

Did you guys mean HPLC? Or GC?

Why you have to make me so jealous

where cheapest to get petronas 10-40w semi?

car = saga blm

saya seorang rider. penzoil, shell, caltex, motul, total, honda semua dh guna utk kapcai saya. saya ambil keputusan utk mencuba mnyk Polytron. agak terkejut dgn performance motor bila guna mnyk neh. enjin lebih senyap.. pickup, long distance pon ok. hrga utk moto RM51.. utk kereta tak pasti berapa...

Tesco already are having promotion since last few weeks for Mobil 3000 X1 5w40 FS, selling only for rm119/5ltr bottle! Besides that, they also have many other oils on promotion but this Mobil has the biggest discount.

Didn't realize that.
Thank you for the reminder.

minyak neh tak sama dgn JTX yg selalu agung2kan turbology la, apa la.... minyak neh minyak askar. kenderaan US military yg pkai sbb lebih lasak dari EO. tak cuba tak tahu. bila dh cuba baru tau. b4 neh pkai motul yg mahal pon rugi gak sbb tak berbaloi dgn hrga saya bayar utk mnyk motul tu.,.

Show us proper information instead of mlm like preaching no different than JTX

show you a video..

Polytron

nope.

up to you to believe it or not.. yg penting saya dh pkai mnyk neh dan amat berpuas hati dgn performance. yg penting, saya bukannya dealer.
saya just share a good thing. susah nk puaskan hati orang.

vios suitable using redline auto transmission fluid? Which model is preferable? Sifus pls recommend !!

Haiya.. this has been discussed a thousand times all over the internet. Tesco imports their stock from Tesco HQ in Europe. So it's Euro blend. And because of the sheer volume they buy their prices are pretty attractive. The only real difference between Tesco Mobil 1 and Mobil 1 from Malaysia is the packaging and additive contents. Mobil 1 M'sia packaging has been updated and looks different. Their formulation is suited for Malaysian weather so OCI claims of 10k km is believable. Euro blend is for Euro scenario. Not saying it won't work here in KL, it will but don't expect the same performance. But most people won't be able to tell the difference unless you are Quazacolt and send your used oil for analysis every time.


That doesn't mean anything. Any engine can idle with a thin layer of oil in it. In fact you can use Palm Oil or cooking oil and the engine will idle like that also. Try driving without engine oil and see what happens to it.

There are other brands out there who claim their cars can run brand X oil, drain it and still drive. But they never show the condition of the engine internals after their oil-less run. Then you'll never see the same car in their tests ever again after that.

All bullshit marketing hype.

Redline is a brand. You want to use the right type of transmission fluid. Any brand also ok, just use the right type. So if the Redline Transmission fluid says it's compatible with Toyota Type-IV oil, then yes you can use it.
