    yan naman yung recommended viscosity talaga. pero now that 20w50 nakalagay it might be more prone to leaks if you switch to the thinner viscosity.

    mas tipid ka sa gas and better power though with the 5w30.

    yup, i'm using bosch oil and fuel filter sa crosswind. mas mababa sila compared to vic - provided may authorized dealer na malapit sa yo. gaya ko sa warren pa ko dumadayo for bosch filters.... sabi nga ni mang rufo ng warren, "vic kasi kalaban nila kaya medyo mas mababa sila konti"

    have you tried the oil flushing additive from shell? yung nilalagay muna hinahalo sa lumang oil bago mo i flush para ma clear out yung mga oil smudge. effective ba yun mga guys?

    Ingat kayo sa mga 'engine flush', hardened engine deposits could be a part already in maintaining good clearances between engine parts that's why many suddenly experience engine trouble after they use these products.

    Personally, I use diesel motor oil every other oil change to keep my petrol engine clean.

    is this safe? what are the procedures?

    No special procedures involved, para ka lang nag oil change. Sa akin I use the diesel motor oil up to my next oil change schedule, yung sa iba up to 500 to 1000 miles lang.

    Okey naman, malinis ang engine at smooth ang takbo. I have been doing it for about three years now. Yung iba nga have shifted to diesel motor oil totally to lube their petrol engines.

    Havoline (dati havoline energy ngayon formula na lang) and Delo Gold ang gamit ko. No appreciated performance difference sa dalawa.

    Yung ibang gumamit ng engine flush biglang nagkakaroon ng leaks sa mga engine seals.

    Ingat sa diesel engine oil. Not all can be used with petrol engines. You are ok with Delo Gold bec its a fleet oil. Its ok to use with both gas and diesel. But its better for diesels.

    the 5w30 oil will be able to take any kind of driving you throw at it. we've seen RP's 5w30 used on supercharged bmw's without any problems so it can take anything you throw at it.
    Speedyfix, pag from 5w50 papalitan ko ng 5w40 o 5w30, kailangan pa ba mag flushing? naka indicate sa manual dapat 5w30 ang gamitin, pero sabi ng service adviser ok lang daw gumamit ng 5w40 o 5w50, anu ba ang dapat?para sa Ford Escape V6 engine.

    Oo nga, dapat the diesel motor oil meets your engine's API specification or at least its 'S' ( C is for diesel) rating is one step higher.

    use the correct viscosity. if 5w30 is recommended then use that. they say ok yung iba just because they don't have the correct viscosity for your engine.

    guys,

    ask ko lang, is it ok to use 10W-40 fully syn oil to my isuzu hilander? kasi typically, 15W-40 gamit ko multigrade and want to try fully syn oil can't find 15W-40 syn oil on the market.
    OK dw yun royal purple, san ba makakabili sa laguna or alabang area? sa laguna kasi ako.

    on new cars sayang to flush. tell your SA not to use it. on the ek tama lang 10w40.

    RP has disel rated oil in 10w40 and 15w40 viscosity. baka wala lang in your area though.

    yun gumagamit ng semi-synthetic na oil, IMO sayang lang pera..for me dagdag ka na lang and go for the fully-syn oil or kung kulang budget then mineral oil na lang

    you don't need to do it. it should state that additives etc are not advised sa ilalim ng hood mo. di ko alam bakit nila ginagawa yun.

    mejo naguluhan lang ako what oil to use, meron mga nagsusuggest ng RP, Motul, etc.
    I'm not a racer naman or anything, I just use my car for work and some gimiks but madalang naman yung mahabang byahe, usually, work-home lang everyday. Are shell/petron oils ok or better ba if mga RP ang gamitin? I mean, if RP ba ang gamitin, mas tatagal pa than 5000kms ang next change oil?

    Kung RP/Motul ang sagot nyo (which I bet is more expensive than gas station oils) isa pang question, what if gamitan ko ng kalahating RP/Motul tapos kalahating gas station oil para mas mura...ok ba yon???
