Petronas lubricants
A new player has entered the country's automotive lubricant market: Petronas. That's right, the same Petronas that's the title sponsor of the Mercedes AMG Formula 1 team. Locally distributed by Petronas Energy Philippines, the Petronas brand of lubricants was sold first in the Visayas and Mindanao regions about a year ago before the company decided to bring its line of products to Metro Manila last June. So, if you want to try a different brand of lubricant for your car that's used by a big-name car manufacturer involved in Formula 1, it might be worth checking out. After all, Nico Rosberg's three retirements this season were due to collisions and not engine failure.

Saw Wurth brand (german) engine oil earlier sa MAS. May promo sila buy 1 take 1. Pwede na ung synthetic oil price pero mahal ang mineral oil. Hangan bukas na lang. Look for Rhoel if interested.![]()
I don't know if you share the same observation as mine, after using the combo of mobil delvac mx + baldwin oil filter for quite sometime, I noticed that the FC suffers. From average of 7.0-7.5km/li (traffic city driving) to just 6km/li.
I would like to share my observations on 3 motor oils. All data were collected with a least 7 full tanks of fuel. I drive the same route everyday and have pretty similar traffic conditions. The way I compute my FC is by recording the amount of fuel that was required to fill my tank, then divide it over the distance I covered.
Mitsubishi Turbo XP "Fully Synthetic" (Group III)
-535km/full tank or 8.9km/L
Mitsubishi Mineral Oil (Group II)
-500km/full tank or 8.3km/L
Royal Purple HPS (Group IV)
-600km/full tank or 10km/L
Haven't computed yet the correction factor since i'm using slightly bigger tires than stock. Im using GLS wheels and tires on a GLX model Strada.
Here is the FC with correction factor included. By the way, I'm also using K&N drop-in filter and I always gas up at Sea Oil.
Mitsubishi Turbo XP "Fully Synthetic" (Group III)
-546km/full tank or 9.1km/L
Mitsubishi Mineral Oil (Group II)
-511km/full tank or 8.5km/L
Royal Purple HPS (Group IV)
-612km/full tank or 10.2km/L
Its amazing that per full tank, I save about 290php compared with the Mitsubishi Turbo XP and 500php compared with the Mitsubishi Mineral Oil.
One thing I like about Mitsubishi is that, they do not charge corkage when I bring my own oil during PMS. Not like Honda where they charge 20% of the value of the oil.![]()
haven't tried bringing in my own oil for our montero sport. i'm not sure if citimotors allow this (or if they charge additionally). will ask na lang when the 5k pms comes rolling-in
