    Hi Guys,
    Got any suggestion for an alternative engine oil for my 2008 Strada aside for casas Turbo Xp. Should it also be 15w-50? Thanks in advance!

    0W40, 5W20, 5W30, 5W40, 10W30, 10W40 and 15-40w

    pero dahil bago pa yang strada mo ay maigeng sundin mo muna kung ano ang nasa OEM manual ng strada mo.

    pero nangangamba ka na kung ano ang nakalagay na langis sa makina mo (semi synthetic, fully synthetic or mineral oil) dahil nga kapag magkaibang composition na langis at baka makasama sa makina mo maigeng gumamit ka na lang ng "royal purple" kasi compatible yan sa lahat ng klaseng engine oil kahit fully synthetic yang royal purple ay puede mong ihalo yan sa semi synthetic or mineral oil

    Sir, as we mentioned in the other thread, its really up to the owner what brand of synthetic oil you want to use. Just make sure you buy a synthetic oil for diesel engine use. Now the the grade, just refer to your owner's manual. Most strada owner's use Motol, but you can go with royal purple, petron, shell, caltex oil basta its for diesel engine and same grade/rating as what's indicated sa owner's manual. use 10w40; 15w40; pwede din 5w40

    Sir,
    Any idea kung saan makakabili ng Motul? So next time pwede na ko any brand at kahit 10w-40, 15w40 kahit nakalagay sa container ng Turbo XP 15w-50 ang ginagamit. Sorry for my ignorance? Gusto ko kasi makatipid konti since mahal din ang Turbo XP. Thanks

    + 1 here. If its still under warranty, use the one approved only by casa. Baka pag nagka problema pa yan, sisihin yung oil na kinarga eh hindi approved ng casa.

    you can opt for their mineral based turbo xp if you are in a budget and let it changed after 5000 kms. or some casa offered the much cheaper motul crdi synthetic at 450/li. IMO to avoid future disagreement stick to what casa recommends na lang within the warranty period.

    Thanks for all the replys sirs! My units about to end its warranty period thats why Im already planning kung anong oil ang maganda as substitute sa casa's oil. Mahal kasi Turbo XP at P500/per liter. Nakita ko sa mga auto section ng Ace hardware/DIY shop, may mga oil na alot cheaper. Di ko nga lang alam kung compatible/advisable ito sa unit ko.

    kung ganon pala eh mag royal purple ka na lang kahit 500 pesos per liter ito pero compatible naman sa lahat ng klaseng engine oil (mineral, semi synthetic at fully synthetic) or kahit na anong viscosity pa yan (0-50W or any kind of grade)
