Whats up guys? Need some advice on engine oil for my car:
- almost 20 years car
- 60k mileage
- very seldom use, yearly maybe 1-2k only now
- jap car
- no plan to sell (personal reasons)

Currently my oil change is based on mileage instead of duration, using semi synthetic oil. Is it better to use fully synthetic for better protection since I seldom use it? Was thinking if fully will be better in the long run, then no harm putting it in.

And any issues if i didn't change the engine oil for 2-3 years since the car hardly move.

Petrol outlet - authentic, authority approval, got chop, got QR code can verify
Tesco, Shopee, Lazada - say original but parallel imported from HK, TH etc unable to verify, cannot scan

No idea. I just bought and use hopefully it's real only. It is hijau instead of usual engine oil colour. And they are bold enough to advertise their product liability insurance which gave me some confidence.

I started using this shit on this neglected Wajunk with 220k mileage which I started driving semi-regularly, so far 230k+ already and I haven't noticed any issue.

I think it served me well for something normally priced in range of RM120-150. I think even if there's no actual ester PAO, it wouldn't wreck your car if you maintain it yearly with this oil. If not just do their normal full syn EO which is even cheaper.

I'm not promoting this brand and not sure if I even helped in your thread. I just prefer this over the somewhat shady Bold. You do you own diligence.

My oil i buy online, either from mall or from other trusted sellers. There are few trusted sellers (besides mall) that are selling genuine oil online.

Hi. My honest advice for engine oil please visit local stesen minyak for 100% original... Never ever purchase them in shopee/lazada unless it is from Mall...and never buy in local spare part shop also

Yes, I have used this

At one point I even bought Ace engine oil from Ace hardware. Made in US. 1 quart was like less than rm10. Avoiding all the fake EO frome outside.
