QUOTE(Happygolucky04 @ Sep 28 2018, 07:47 AM) Agree. I have chat with my car workshop and the lady owner has shared so many stuff with me about lubricant market. Sad to hear that the enforcement in Malaysia is weak and anyone can just put up a oil and sell it online. Short term like 3-4 years you wont see the problem, but after that your engine one day just breakdown on the road and its already too late. Say that engine is the heart, lubricant is the blood. You had bad blood inside, sooner your heart will stop. Not worth buying too cheap oil. Heard the lady owner sharing about Shell Malaysia program called Shell Advantage Rewards. You get free oil if consistently service from authorized workshop! Googled about it and it look good https://share.shell.com/consumer/my/Pages/Login.aspx. Sign up and get FREE RM10 petrol voucher somore..so happy!  Well I won't take any shop owners words 100% too!  Because they have a business motive behind which is to make as much profit as possible, so they will say anything so people will just buy from them even when they also try to con you kaw kaw!

So far i hv tried this in 3 cars, > 10yrs car. Surprisingly! Its feel good, quiet and driving is smooth! I hv exactly thinking like any1 of u out there. Buying cheap eo? NO, WONT RISK MY CAR But somehow i tried, and it is different, feels better than those common brand like shell & mine previous Ravenol. Of course it make no sense to risk an engine to save on the engine oil money, but then... I did.. Haha

I too have been looking at this Mizu brand as it is the top seller in online shop for engine oil.
The thing I don't like it that is it hiding behind a "Japanese" image to give people the feeling that it is made in Japan.
However, it does have a lot of nicely made infomercial that is trying to boost confidence with potential buyers.
Also the fact that it is made in Malaysia made me want to support local business. Provided that are honest with their product.
So I am going to test this oil soon on my next oil change.

Mine already on the 3rd bottle. Just like anyone say, its a good EO.
Placebo effect? Cheap EO suppose to give negative placebo effect, but it not happen. I rather use this cheap EO than using fake reputable brand where so many workshop are selling now.
Thousand of user gave good review compare to few with negative mentality, where in fact they don't use the product themselves, so smart people know who to listen to.
