[chieffy]

zildjian,

big savings iyan ah! ...10,000 change oil interval, tapos 12km/ltr pa fuel economy mo sa Havoline Formula...ako sinubukan ko ngayon Fully Synthetic...i hope mag-improve ang fuel economy ko para naman sulit yung ibinayad ko...ang mahal eh...kapag walang added benefits sa FUEL ECONOMY eh baka bumalik ako ng Havoline Energy....

thanks pre...

Used Havoline Energy on my Toyota and
tried Havoline Fully Synthetic on my Honda.
Very good oils, definitely.
But these rounds of price increases have
resulted in these oils being very expensive.
So when I changed oil last weekend, I decided
to go back to mineral based 20W/50 oil.
Stumbled on a cheap brand in Hans Tools in
Shangrila Mall - Petronas Mach 5 20W/50
API SL for only P420.00 per gallon. They also
have synthetic blend and fully synthetic at prices
25% cheaper than Castrol, Mobil and Pennzoil.
I'll just go back to Havoline when oil prices
normalize. As it is now, panic prices are prevailing...

[gjtech]

where can i buy mobil1 fully synth at a good price? yung sa kotse.com ba do they still sell it?

are there other available grades aside from 0w-40?

[DeltaBravo]

Pennzoil....

[1D4LV]

i still go tor havoline energy....


the mitsubishi fully synthetic is also good, mahal nga lang.

[benchph1]

Shell Helix plus (Semi-synthetic)

eto yung blue container.

[slickae92red]

haay salamat meron din gumagamit ng shell plus...

[cesar]

For me, sinubukan ko yung Citgo 10W-30. Thogh mineral based sya pero mataas ang API certfication nya API-SL at meets ILSAC GF3 so energy conserving din. Ang maganda pa dyan, it only costs Php 63.95/qt sa Price Smart! Meron ding available na 20W-50 and 10W-40. It's up to you kung ano ang gusto nyo. But for me, may tinipid sa gas and lumakas ng konti ang hatak ng Revo ko.

We just had our accord tuned up (sa casa). Used Castrol GTX with synthetic guard 20W50, switched from LiquiMoly 20W50 din from autoxer.
The car, strangely, feels a bit slower, and slower revving. Does this make sense? Bat naging parang mas mabagal and parang mas malakas pa sa gas nung nagpatune up ako.

this is the castrol i got.

Shell Helix Ultra. Resists heat soaking so well, oil temp doesn't rise too high on the track as fast as other oils, keeps hydraulic lifters really quiet too.

Pero I still change oil at 5,000km (more or less). Mas mura parin 3.5k++ kumpara sa new engine or overhaul.

[mgam]

I also use Shell Helix Plus Semi-Synthetic (blue). I change oil every 6 mos or 5000 kms.
I also install original oil filter (honda) bought at casa. I use engine oil flush (I read somewhere that this is bad for the engine), but I don't put in any additives.

pwede ba yung Havoline Energy / Havoline Formula sa diesel engine?... im using Mobil Delvac

[chieffy]

updated 05/30/03

sir marwen pwede po...API rating niya is API-SJ and ACEA A1-98, B1-98(API-SL for Energy Synthetic and the latest Formula)

The Amerian Petroleum Institute (API) has established a series of Service Classifications for engine oils used for service fill of gasoline engine. These are the "S" categories,generally accepted as being for service station or spark ignition applications. Each service category is defined by a set of engine tests. Each engine test is run under stringent conditions, and engine components are examined at the end of the test and rated. Minimum pass requirements are set for each test requirement.

Q:Can I use Havoline Energy in my diesel engine car, 4-wheel drive etc in order to reduce my fuel bill?

A:The answer to this is a qualified yes. Havoline Energy meets ACEA B1, a European automotive industry specification which defines fuel efficient engine oils for light duty (ie not truck, bus etc) diesel engines. So if your owner’s manual calls for an oil meeting ACEA B1, or allows the use of low viscosity engine oils then you may certainly choose to use Havoline Energy. However, if you live in a part of the world where diesel fuel sulfur is still relatively high (e.g. parts of Africa and the Middle-East) then you may need to use a shortened drain interval in comparison with diesel engine oils specifically developed for use with moderate to high sulfur content fuels.

[marwen]

salamat po sir.. hmmm kala ko pwede... he.he... tipid kasi sa gas sabi nyo ... anyways.. sino maka pag testify ng diesel engine oil effect nya less consumption ng fuel... kasi yung mobil delvac na ginamit ko ngayon the same pa rin yung fuel consumption ko 7.3 km/l sa city tapos 8 to 9 sa highway ... 4D56 Intercooler turbo pala yung engine.. exempt nyo na lang yung synthetic mahal kasi eh... mineral oil lang..

I'm due to replace my Engine Oil, pero hindi ko alam kung anong oil gagamitin ko. I have this discount coupon sa shell, pero if there are other oil brands na ok other than Helix, il go for it. Ano kaya ok na engine oil, synthetic and non synthetic, medyo low budget kasi tayo eh, kaya i'm not sure kung kuha ako synthetic oil kasi mahal, nasa almost 2000 per 4 liters. Kayo po ano gamit nyong oil for your cars? Thanks!

ako dati delo 500 multi but rimula x has now a higher rating so i tried rimula x sa starex, ok naman cia.

in our 2 cars i used the one bought sa trans show "polo lubricants" 100% fully synthetic 0W50 <---- i dont know if other oils carry this 0w-50, it also has this symbol of ENERGY CONSERVING like a donut shape, and i think caltex hav energy also has this, mukhang ok so i tried it na, ok din nman, i dont know if its psychological, but it gives me faster acceleration. it also states that its a racing motor oil and according to the articles that i read, if u say racing motor oil, its good or even better, imagine race cars, they put their cars to the limit. i got it for more or less P500/ quart. its from the US kaya quart (.946 L) kaya adjust nalang and u know what they claim, the boiling point daw of this oil is >300 deg C., good for both petrol and diesel engines.

just like wat u said "pain is temporary ..... glory is forever! parang pagbili din ng FULLY SYNTHETICS! hehehe :lol:

[lowkey]

ok kaya din kaya yung mga engine oil bought sa casa? php90/l(php320+/4l) lang yung mineral-based oil ng mitsubishi(api sj rating). may magiging masamang effect kaya kung gagamitin yung engine oil from mitsu sa toyota car or vise-versa?

kung iko-compare naman with well-known brands, malaki kaya ang difference na nai-o-offer na protection ng well-known brand(engine oil) as compared dun sa engine oil bought sa casa? :roll:

[RS Sprint]

Engine protection and longevity will matter more on the frequency of your oil change in the long run if you are a regular driver.

[sekbomb]

my ride is a 02 altis. ang required na oils are 5w30, 10w30, 15w40 and 20w50.
ok lang kaya gumamit ng 10w40 na oil?

after using toyota synthetic sa last pms ko, pwede kaya akong mag energy?

5w30? ung 5w,granted its gud sa cold starts. eh ung 30, is it too thin or thick enough to handle ung init sa pinas.

bago ung packaging ng energy ha, api-sl na tapos may nakalagay na synthetic. fully synthetic na ba talaga sya?

my other choices: CASTROL SYNTEC 10W40 and TURBO XP 15W50.

boss chieffy, enlighten me...

[chieffy]

sekbomb nandito po lahat ng sagot sa inyong tanong

You might want to try MILLEX. It's parafin base and every 20,000 km change oil ang claim ng supplier. JKD marketing ang distributor. P250 per liter when I last ordered. Free delivery w/in metro manila. Tel # 3739646.

I've tried it sa corolla ko, and very satisfied ako. Di ko lang pina abot ng 20K kasi baka filter ko naman bumigay. At 16K nag change oil ako and believe or not OK pa condition ng oil when my mechanic darined my engine.
:D
