Mineral , semi synthetic or fully synthetic?

[Sebastian Bach]

For petrol only (out of warranty)

If you are driving with conventional oil 1hr everyday irregardless of mileage. It should be good for 3months.

If you are driving with say shell helix ultra fs for 1hr everyday, its should be good for 6months.

For diesel -ibang usapan na yan ahhaha

Ohh... sorry it's petrol, still casa maintained & 1-2hrs use everyday.

So, I should use fully synthetic every pms right?

May semi synthetic daw na passed off as fully synth.
Eto ba totoong fully synthetic?

Sk classify this as semi synthetic because it is grp3. It is 100% grp3 oil.

Time based oci dapat for philippine traffic. Any oil will do as long as you change it in time. Hehehe

100% synthetic as per sk, the russians say 5000-7500km interval for zic a+ sn


Even the semi synthetic shell helix hx7 5w30 has better additive package than this.

Anyways there is no pds for this a+ sn/gf5

There is a zic a+ sn/a3/b3/b4/c3 which is a long drain oil.

If you get a photo of the backside of the bottle then we might know what certifications/approvals it have.

thanks for the quick reply bro .. btw ito yung label sa likod.





also wala akong makita expiry date, normal ba ito? ayaw ko muna sana gamitin. isip ko next year nalang para di ako malito sa interval. naka sked na kasi sa calendar ko for this year every 3 months eh

Ah nice, the hths viscosity of this oil is 2.8, wear protection on older vehicles is not good.

Also if the oil is good normally it has much more approvals.

Nakakalito talaga itong Zic. They have A+ na labelled fully synth at semi-synth, may A na semi synth may XQ na fully synth. Baka yung A+ is the lousiest fully synth they have, para bang entry level synthetic oil.

[jaggerx3]

Ang XQ fully synthetic talaga yan.

Bro you think i got a semi synthetic variant?

[jaggerx3]

Baka entry level ng fully synthethic yan. Hehe
Pero kahit semi yan it's a good oil

Honestly bro yung oil that came with the car yun pinaka OK yung feel. After 1k pms, it felt a little different. Though it was during the 1k pms when i had the shocks "tigthend". Yun kaya yun or is it the oil? Genuine naman daw sabi ng casa. Oh well ...

Si StockEngine can make a better assessment of it than I can. Maybe you can list down the certifications or approvals the oil has?

[StockEngine]

Latest conventional oils pass api-sn, Latest semi synth pass gf-5.

Semi synth in the USA is good for 7500miles

But in the Philippines, its severe usage, for semi synth i would do oci 4.5 months,

I would just get, shell helix ultra 5w30 and just forget oil for 6 months.

Cost of oil+filter is the same in a year.
2800+300 ×2
1700+300 ×3

Lots of cheaper fully synth now, rp and havoline and mobil1 to name a few for about 600php per liter

Even zic xq is only 2190 sa olx. This is i would trust to last 6months. Hehehe

[baludoy]

dito sa mag1 5w-30 fully synth anong masasabi niyo mga bos?
