    Dati Castrol gamit ko kaya lang madaling magkaroon ng sludge ang makina ko pagbukas mo ng valve cover . Ngayon Motul Htech 10W40 fully synthetic at maganda at hindi nagkakaroon ng sludge at magaan sa makina at tumipid sa gasolina.

    bro sa pagkakaintindi ko sa chart ng api oil 10w = pwede sa lowest outdoor temp na 0deg C, http://www.aa1car.com/library/API_ratings.pdf
    at ang 30 naman lagpas pa sa 40degC otside temp.
    di porke 30 ay 30degC na ang max na kaya nito.

    raine is right. the SAE numbers do not directly represent the temperature but rather the oil viscosity. for example: 10w40- the 10 represents the thickness of the oil at 0 degrees celsius and the 40 represent the viscosity in warmer climates above 70 degrees celsius. please check your owner's or service manual and do not rely on hearsay from your "mechanics" who barely graduated from high school

    kung ganyan brand ang gusto mo, marami sa ACE harware kaya lang medyo mahal, kasi ako specs ang tinitignan ko di brand, well kanya kanya tayo.
