Currently using this fully synthetic 5w30 for my >5 yr old Toyota Sienta: https://s.lazada.com.my/s.TJLIdNow only got to know other brands like Mizu and Morrisons. Are they good? Both got own official stores at Lazada. Don’t really know how to check their ratings in detail for Fully Synthetic type. Actually 5w30 or 5w40 better for my car? I read somewhere that 5w40 is more recommended for countries with cold weather/winter. For Malaysia 5w30 good enough? This post has been edited by Davidtcf: Aug 8 2023, 09:00 AM |

QUOTE(ketaros @ Aug 21 2023, 02:57 PM) Hi sifus, I'm considering BOLD eo for my 10 years saga flx with 250,000 mileage. I have been sending my car to SC for service all this time. They use semi syn 10w30 eo for my car. Now that I 've bought new car, I'm thinking of buying eo online and service outside for my saga. I will be using saga as my daily drive to work. Is BOLD oil alright for my usage. If ok, should i go fully syn since its cheap or maintain with semi syn. They also have high mileage oil 15w50, should i use this instead? Thanks for any input I would suggest buy 5w30 fully synthetic. Buy via Lazada official brand shops since there are many fake EOs. Example Mizu at Lazada10w30 is for heavy loaded commercial vehicles like trucks: https://www.repairsmith.com/blog/5w30-vs-10w30/But usually new car ppl will go back SC la, else will void warranty later (engine or other car hardware if suddenly spoil, you wanna pay yourself if still warranty?). Ask your SC how many more years warranty? Then just follow service at SC until your car warranty no more. This post has been edited by Davidtcf: Aug 22 2023, 10:52 AM |
