IMHO...mobil is better than castrol...according to the stories i've heard and read....
but then...it is more expensive....
in our shop...we carry castrol....and that's what i use.

Dieseler swears by Mobil1 Delvac (fully synthetic). Ako walang budget. Pwede na sa Castrol na nabibili sa tindahan ni Glenn. :mrgreen:

February 20th, 2003 05:45 AM #4IMO, Mobil delvac 1 for full synthetic. Delvac MX 15w40 for mineral based. Find them cheaper than branded oils.
GlennSter,
Does Castrol carry a fully synthetic oil in the Phils? Think the Magnatec is only a Semi-Synth but priced like a full synth! Heard they might introduce Formula R full synth oils soon- is this true?

Mobil for me... Delvac MX is pretty reasonably priced (at P110-P115 a pop).

Yup, Delvac MX is fine for turbo diesels as long as 15w40 is within the recommended range in your patrol's manual. I've used it on turbo diesels for some time but change every 4T km.

Any reccomendations of what type of castrol oils do you use? How much?
