I think if you love to venture in car parts business you should do that as well.. For my T.Wish ZGE20 parts I always source from them.. If you are spare parts or workshop can open account at.. 1) UMW Toyota Motor Service Parts, Shah Alam.. 2) Hua Hong Auto Supplies 3) Vanli - very slow in shipments Can I just open up a rm2 company in ssm then buy as distrib?

Did a bit of digging on their API certification, can't seem to find any product named Dynolube. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « However, surprisingly I found a number of other no name engine oil brand from Malaysia such as BOLD and Mizu on the site. And if youtube automotive channels are to be trusted, I think all engine oil is more or less the same, cheap does not mean bad - for example they compare Amazon basic oil with other named brand, cheap Amazon oil works fine. Just as long as you get the recommended viscosity right for the engine. Dynolube is overpriced for what it is Even shell hx7 is a better choice

Don't cheap out too much as the car you still driving. Not like ask you to get Castrol or Petronas. Even want to sell already doesn't mean you let it rot. Imagine if you are buying a used car, the previous owner think like you. Do you want to get a bad condition car cause the owner don't want to take care of it already cause selling? Tried mizu, quite rough on the engine. Now moved to nissan/total Not planning to even sell it, the car has holes on the floor ady. Not that I let it rot, memang boughted knowing it's partly liddat

Why not try a good high mileage oil or branded oil, it may actually save more time & money than continue topping up I just started going back to established known engine oil too after using cheap oil for like 4-5 yrs 😂 Need to love back my car How does it save time or money?

Since you need to top up constantly, might as well buy 7litres in 1 go. Check out the BHP Trans Super 15W-40 API SL/CI-4. It is only around rm80 for 7litres, and probably lower when on sale. Closing in 35 year old soon But thanks for the recommendation!

Maybe at the end same costs as better oil, some oil has PAO & ESTER for less sludge and better high temperatures evaporation. The car burns 1 quart for every 4k km, I change my oil every 6k km Those pao & ester oils are at least rm 140 for a 4l bottle, the car needs 2 bottle so RM280 The usually oil I use is from nissan/total only cost rm50 per bottle, 2 bottles only rm100 Sludging? the car is 35 years old, back then tolerence are much more liberal Not to mention this was my old topup I had to buy as a backup » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « inb4 ayam is poor, that is true tho This post has been edited by rtk74: Mar 31 2022, 05:25 PM

All cars in my family also between 15-25 yrs . i was not aware ur car needs 2 bottle, my bad The such big amount of oil reduction, ever check due to seal? Or other stuff? Incase u plan to solve the root cause Old car maa, standard wear and tear, not as bad as 1mzfe & 1zzfe fuel burn. That and a small valve cover leak, not enough to drip on the floor though I'm searching for a 'newer' car nao, especially when there's a huuge probability that ron95 won't be pegged to the same price anymore The car starting to have alot of rust holes on the floor & I don't have much time to take care of it anymore Not worth selling oso.

I mean either its fake oil or lower quality oil If u need to use 2 bottle & topup 2 liter, thats rm120 for 6k km If u use pao + ester, rm240 can last u 10-12k km... Then its almost same.. But less 1 round of labor + oil filter And less topup 2-3 times hassles Give it a try bro 😂who knows Old car not meant to use long intervals The topup was needed even if i used teh shell helix oso

They big and a lot to lose if proved in a legal action. Same with Lotus ( former Tessco ). I have been using their oil for last 7 years, no problems. Btw one of my cars is a high performance BMW 6 series, also use this oil and no issues. Sometimes Shell UH full syn at Lotus retails at RM90/- Can use it safely! Nice car brah

He parralel import it from USA. Its also a bargain since its 5L and my engine only needs 3L. And its Mobil 1, kinda overkill for a Toyota engine but nevermind The seal is there and the bottle cap was very tight to open initially. Click spoiler to see photos » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « About your concern if 0w20 is suitable for Honda city, I have previously used 0w20 in my Exora. Turbocharged some more. No loss of oil. Engine still remains the same roughness as 5w30. FC probably about the same. Then the next oil change I put back 5w30, same roughness (only when turbo boost). Now even with Liqui Moly MOS2. So therefore thickness of oil does not mean it will protect better or make the sound softer. Your car and my car is not highly tuned engines. Thicker viscosity is to withstand higher temperature. Picture missing
