just get those branded semi-syn 10W40 engine oil will do...

any brand suggestion ?

Think the key message is don't get fake oil.

But if you insist a brand recommendation, you can consider these, which I have personally used:
a) Magnetec (I find it don't play nice with Liqui Moly MoS2 additive, white flake tend to form)
b) Shell semi, blue bottle one (quite sound, but a lot of fakes. Better get from trusted garage or petrol station)
c) Idemitsu works fine for me currently, blended with LM MoS2 additive.

The key point is don't use fake oil, don't overfill (I keep the level middle of max and min oil indicator), and change it every 5,000 km (this is personal preference. I tend to stick to manufacturers recommendation)

Reference: Clocking of 310,000km plus on my 2011 Persona Elegance.

I don't have brand preference, like inferno said, just get genuine branded oil will do. Modern engine like persona are more forgiving on engine oil as long as genuine oil used and follow service interval.

I have used Castrol Magnatec 10W40, Shell HX7, now testing Bosch fully synthetic 5W30 less viscous oil to reduce fuel consumption. You can get cheaper oil such as Bosch from authorized Bosch dealer; TopValu from Aeon. These oil are API certified so at least the "minimum quality requirement" were fulfilled.

Wow, my 14 year old saga only clocking 240kkm so far....

Unbelievable..... I have seen a 30 year old Mercedes taxi clocking 800k km so far..... It's the highest....

ya.. but if u join Gen2 facebook club, quite often can seen member's car clocking 450-500k km mileage. usually they no intend to post mileage but posted the meter cluster photo asking for help coz of engine malfunction light or overheating.. gen2 launched 2004 so the guess those cars only 14 years old max.

This one, is my idol. Lol

wow , this is my first time to see such high mileage on proton cars . haha. Cant believe that proton is so durable , can tahan until 800k km

I use petronas no problem till to date 80kkm only though

petronas 10w40 ? how is the performance ?

how often should we change the brake pad ?

I have changed my front pad at around 40k km after they produce the warning sound. As for rear still going strong at 68k km

I have changed both my front & rear brake pad & disc, front is ok, but rear disc still make 'wong wong' sound during reverse, till now I don't know what the cause, whether the angle not straight or loose...

Tesco fully synthetic 5w40, to me it’s the best I had experienced.

yes... only got 2 belt... timing and fan

i hv been using magnatec 10w40 since new car until now with no issue at all...
just FC is deteriorating from time to time...
