is there any way to determine oil by just looking or feeling the oil itself. if mineral, semi or full synthetic? :confused:
safe assumption na ba ito mga gurus?
Mineral - change oil every 5k or 4 mos
Semi Synthetic - change oil every 8k or 6 mos
Fully Synthetic - change oil every 10k or more or 1 year
more or less sir, yan ang norm.. madali kasi tandaan eh..
naging culture na sa automotive...
personally, i just use a branded, well established and trusted mineral oil(backed by research and data), which is cheap less than 150 per liter, then i change my oil at 3,500 kms... that way the oil is never fully used nor degraded... the soot and other particles suspended in the oil is removed much sooner.. necessary minerals are always replenished faster because of the short OCI... that's just me...
I get the best out of the oil, and i get the best out of my money, and the engine happy...
Madami akong nababasa sa net regarding OCI, ung 3K miles every OCI ay panahon pa ng 60's or 70's sa modern vehicles daw ngayon at sa improved oil quality, hindi na tugma ang 3k miles OCI, your wasting oil na daw. nabasa ko lang....
ok lang sir retz, ahaha.. sa oil ok lang na hindi magtipid, sa ibang bagay na lang na hindi importante babawas yung expenses...
for the same amount of money 2x na OCI na achieved ko...
What type of delo is recommended for my 2.5 vnt fortuner? Not cheap nor expensive..
Best bang for the buck recommendation
Depende kasi kung gaano katagal plan mo na oil change interval. Kung comfortable ka sa 5,000kms, no need delo 400. Kaya naman ng delo gold ultra na lang. Pero gaya ng sabi ni monty_GTV, kung may maganda kang filter at 10,000kms ka magpapalit, better use delo 400. I assume kasi na since nagtatanong ka dito, malamang regular pms ka na every 5,000kms eh palit ka na rin ng engine oil kowya!
Salamat pow kowya sa responds..
Clarification lang pow,
Delo 400 > delo multigrade ?
a little click on your keyboard and tap to your mouse pointing to caltex will tell you something about Delo 400 and Delo multigrade
Delo Diesel Engine Lubricating Oil - Delo 400, Gold, Silver & Sports - Caltex Philippines
ung Toyota OEM mineral oil, Caltex mineral oil ba ito na ni repackage lang? or to be specific, Delo Gold ba ito na repackage?
