I meant my other older cars that are out of warranty. Not the Vios.

Good lor, IF you can afford to do that, why not. Good for the engine too, fresh EO every 5k km / 1year.. IF i can afford, i will do it to my car.

PSPS : Don't neglect transmission oil also a, rmmbr to do clutch bleeding ( for manual ) once in a while ( while changing transmission oil )

Seems like if you search in petronas lube PDS, there are only two fluid that have PDS uploaded and it is ILSAC-GF6 graded (although the R3 oil is GF6A grade).

I dont understand the PDS but seems like PDS is quite simplified, i have some sample pending to send to blackstone for analysis.

I got feeling it is not PAO type engine oil unlike those premium brand like Amsoil or Penrite

Yes, based on my "friend" as he is quite good in term of EO knowledge ( he is EO seller ), R3 EO is in middle category as it doesn't use latest tech or smthng.. idk how to explain.. like PAO la Ester la bla2 all those spec..

Maybe R3 know that our P1 car doesn't need all those thingy is our car stock performance is just average..

i just wanted to share my little experiment on Penrite VS Mannol.

I liked to use HPR5 Penrite on my 10 years old sht box and i decided to try Mannol 0-40w legend PAO+ESTER bla3.

HPR5 : 5k km almost 0 wear
Mannol : 5k km tons of wear, half my dip stick between max-min

kinda suprised with the outcome since Mannol did quite well in fact better than HPR5 on serveral youtube EO test.

i ask my friend who kinda knows more about this, he said Mannol EO that i bought might be manufactured here or something which causing the quality to drop.

Kinda my question, now many Shopee Mall selling EO with Ester based at attractive price (filter shopee mall). If read website, Ester based EO > Fully synthetic based.

Will try next brand shopee mall with Ester based in the future

i am not brave enough to buy 80rm fully synthetic ESTER bla3 EO..
