Caltex Delo Gold Ultra

[keto]

Buhayin ko lang tong thread. Hirap pala maghanap nung Gold Ultra, usually yung Gold lang meron sa Caltex stations. Pero patience paid off at naka-tsamba ako nung 6L promo pack for 1.2k, so roughly 200 per liter yung nakuha ko.

[fireice2]

Hirap maghanap nyan lalo na dito sa Davao. Kung meron man, over priced.

Shell Rimulla R4-X, ang katapat nyan, mas mura pa!

magChangeoil na kasi ako sa aking 1996 Honda Civic, base sa pagkakabasa ko mas maganda Delo Gold for my cars engine compared to Delo Gold Ultra.

delo gold ultra has a higher specification than delo gold...

[Juan Martinez]

i'm using this oil (Delo Gold SAE 15W-40) for my fieldmaster and i observe that it lessens the engine shaking (or vibration) when i turned the engine off after a short or long drive.

Thank you Sir. Pero sabi sa kabilang page on the same thread mas okay daw for 90's car ang delo 400. Kaya nga nacoconfuse ako eh. Please enlighten Sir.

Walang sinabi na mas maganda ang Delo Gold for 90's car. Ang sinabi lang ay pwede na ang Delo Gold for 90's car dahil API CH-4 ito which is minimum required for 1998 cars and below.

Actually dahil 1996 Honda Civic ang car mo, kahit API CG-4 ay pwede mo gamitin. Pero wala naman ng Delo oil na API CG-4 spec pa. CH-4 ang minimum which is Delo Gold.

API rating is backward compatible kaya pwede mo rin gamitin ang newer API. That means pwede ka gumamit ng Delo Gold Ultra at Delo 400, which are better oils.

API Rating

API CJ-4 (Current) - Introduced in 2006
API CI-4 (Current) - Introduced in 2002
API CH-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1998
API CG-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1995

Delo 400 - Multigrade, Heavy-duty, SAE 15W-40, API CI-4 PLUS
Delo Gold Ultra - Multigrade, Heavy-duty, SAE 15W-40, API CI-4
Delo Gold - Multigrade, SAE 15W-40, API CH-4

For gasoline vehicles, look at the API rating with the "S" prefix (SL, SN, SM, etc.). The "C" prefix (CH-4, CI-4), is for diesel engines.

Anyway, im using Delo Gold Ultra on my 2012 Altis now (change oil every 5,000kms).

ito ba iyong magandang pang-flushing? gusto ko kasi linisan iyong internals ng makina ng fd namin

ano kaya ang api rating natin para vios gen 2 & altis gen 9? TIA

^
Mas ok talaga yan kasi ch-4/sJ ang api rating. Ang problema sa delo gold eh hindi magagamit sa sL rated engine na karamihan ng mga kotse nyayon like civic, jazz, altis, vios.....etc

Kaya swerte ang mga naka 90s honda, toyota pwede delo gold.

Ang api rating ng delo gold ultra ci-4/sL. Kaya sa mga nagbabasa dito eh check nyo muna api rating ng kotse nyo at pag bibili ng delo engine oil check din api rating.

As of year 2014
delo gold ------- ch-4/sJ
delo gold ultra ----ci-4/sL
delo 400----------ci4+/sL

I assumed na Diesel ang car nya dahil Delo oil ang tinatanong nya. Of course kung Gas ang car nya, tama yung sinabi mo. Minimum na pwede sa 1996 car nya is API SJ. Again backward compatible ang API rating kaya kahit API SL, SM at SN ay pwede gamitin.

API Rating

API SN (Current) - Introduced in Nov 2010
API SM (Current) - Introduced in Nov 2004
API SL (Still current but nearly obsolete) - Introduced in 1998
API SJ (Still current but nearly obsolete) - Introduced in 1996

Yung API rating ay nasa owner's manual ng car mo. Kung wala kang owner's manual, check mo lang manufacturing date ng car mo. Then compare sa release date ng API.

Altis 9th gen (E120, E130; 2000–2008)
Vios 2nd gen (XP90; 2007–2013)

Example, kung 2000 Altis (Gas) ang car mo, pwede mo gamitin Minimum API SL. Kung 2008 Altis (Gas) ang car mo, pwede mo gamitin minimum API SM. But both can also use the latest API SN.

API Rating (Diesel)

API CJ-4 (Current) - Introduced in 2006
API CI-4 (Current) - Introduced in 2002
API CH-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1998
API CG-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1995
API CF-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1990

API Rating (Gas)

API SN (Current) - Introduced in Nov 2010
API SM (Current) - Introduced in Nov 2004
API SL (Still current but nearly obsolete) - Introduced in 1998
API SJ (Still current but nearly obsolete) - Introduced in 1996

Lagyan mo rin ng Joy? Delo is fine for flushing purposes. If you want to just flush before loading new oil, there are also flushing oils available.

Using DGU + BT223 on my 2011 Vios as well. 5k OCI

Pwede na with the price of DGU diba? Laging ubos yung Delo Gold 400 sa binbilhan ko when i go for change oil.
