QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Jan 31 2024, 03:26 PM) Another year, another purchase of petronas 5w40. Left vanli (end of 2023), Shopee (center), Mesra (right mid 2023). At this point, I have totally given up on buying legit engine oil online. Vanli is cheap about RM13x, this shopee one RM155, Mesra 284. Plastic bottle seems harder, not as soft as Vanli. Sticker design almost like Mesra, without QR. Havent open the foil to see if there's any difference to Vanli. Only mesra foil has hologram. Shopee seller claimed new packaging no hologram. Good sharing, seems stickers hv some diffs. I thought Vanli is reputable spare parts shop also?

Vanli is okok only in my list... got one time recommended me Bort absorber... damn lousy absorber kong after 1 month... went to warranty and replace another pair for front... kong again after 1 month. Vanli claim their oil from europe... shopee seller show me memorandum from petronas saying changes in foil to non hologram. I dont know can trust or not. Mesra oil is almost no smell but vanli and shopee seller very similar smell.

QUOTE(rtk74 @ Feb 2 2024, 06:36 PM) Oily? It's hard to describe. Perhaps I would call it deliberately added fragrance to make it smells good. The original oil from mesra also had some smell but very very faint unlike those from vanli or that shopee seller. The obvious is the viscocity since mesra version seems to flow more smoothly. Also lighter tint kinda like new cooking oil vs slightly used cooking oil color difference.

Read somewhere EU countries allow recycled oil to mix with new oil? True or fake?

I just bought Syntium 5w30 from Mesra Petronas. Doesn't have hologram anymore. I also emailed petronas mesralink for confirmation & they said new packaging from August 2023 doesn't have hologram. Next service i want to buy from vanli shopee to compare too (if got promo lah.. 😆😆)
