August 8th, 2008 09:55 AM #11Most engine oils for sale here are API rated. How would I know if the one I'm buying is energy conserving? Secondly, do they have published data on how much fuel is saved and is this confirmed by an independent lab test? By the way, is it not that higher viscosity oils, e.g. 10w40 or 20w50 are better suited for hot climates such as ours?

The only 'wonder lube' I'll ever use is the one approved by Mr. Happy. :banana3: :naughty2:

December 9th, 2008 11:23 AM #15If what it claim is true, and the huge savings it can give, my goodness thats a lot of peso savings. However, I am not a fan of additive, a good motor oil is already loaded with advance additive technology nowadays. There is no need for additional additive, it does not serves the purpose anymore.
I am using full synthetic 5W30 valvoline and I get to realize big savings on fuel, plus longer drain intervals w/c translates to less downtime and PMS (cost), and i get to used a high quality oil. I also tried using MAG1 5W30, I got it in Ace Hardware and also gave me the same excellent performance.
So why would I use another chemicals put inside my engine when I get the desired results anyway...

If I were you, I would not invest my money on an oil additive.... Generally, the benefits that they claim are not true.... Over a decade ago, I experimented on using a well-advertised oil additive,- it wreak (havoc) on the engine..

November 1st, 2013 01:18 AM #18in 2008, i bought 40 bottles (250ml) of wonderlube. sold it to my friends with these instructions: for every 4 ltrs of engine oil. add 250ml. the first time i used it, i felt that 'dumulas' ang makina. in fact, i was so careful in driving along edsa because parang nawala ang engine break. wala naman akong napansin na adverse effect after 5 years when i sold our L300,
in terms of fuel savings, i cant attest to that. the wonderlube was invented for lubrication; kung may savings, it may be due to the placebo effect. what i can attest to is that our nuvitron increased the L300's fuel saving from 12k/l to 15-16km/ltr. (single technology). for our kia pride, the fuel savings increased from 13km to 16-20 k/ltr(dual technology). sorry, parang OT.
(I personally know the inventor's brother; and i can say that seeing is believing)
