Mineral , semi synthetic or fully synthetic?

[jodski]

Im currently using havoline 20w50 for my 1997 corolla gli 1.6. Im planning to change to the new shell high mileage sythetic motor oil which is 10w40. Should i proceed with the change of oil?

Matagal na ba naka 20w50 yan?

If you are planning to go ahead with 10w40 mag prepare ka na rin ng budget for valve cover oil seal replacement just in case may mag leak dyan after the switch.

My mechanic told me na medyo makapal daw yung 20w50. na observe ko rin nababawasan din yung oil ko.

40 is thinner than 50 so if you have observed that lesser oil stay in your engine with a relatively thick oil at 50, then expect it more if you replace your current oil with a thinner 40

Moving from thick to thin oil is always good for the engine and fuel economy but if your engine is leaking oil already then that makes it a bad idea

Is it absolutely necessary to engine flush if switching from mineral to FS?

There are semi-synthetic oils in 5w40 (Shell Helix HX7) and 10w40 (Valvoline, Shell) viscosities. For mineral oil, you can opt for 10w30 (Idemitsu) or 15w40 (Shell HX5).

20w50 is just too thick for small engines. Even with big 4-cylinders (2.0L or more), I would not even recommend it.

[Nakishus]

what does the owner's manual say, po? i'd probably stick to it.

+1

yes thats the best oil for you car which can be found in the manual...

sir meron po ako tanong sa mga experts dito..


gusto ko sana gamitin yung MOBIL DELVAC 1 full synth for Isuzu D-max 2017 LS po. pero nakalagay sa manual MOBIL DELVAC MX which is synth blend. ok lng ba full synth gamitin ko? ano kaya safe na ODI?

sa friend ko Monty ride nya gamit din siya MOBIL DELVAC 1 pero ODI nya 15,000 km. tapos sabi ng clasmate ko nagwork sa MOBIL kaya dw 25,000 km to 40,000 km ang ODI ng mobil full synth or 1 year whichever come first.
pero kadalasan nabasa ko pag full synth 10,000 km ODI tapos pag semi-snythetic 5,000 km po.

need lng po advice ano maganda ODI na safe ng engine po.
maraming salamat po

normally we say oci. oil change interval.

intervals depend on filter and oil. if you're using stock filters, follow oci as per reco in the manual aka whichever comes first time or distance.

Aside from delvac one you might also want to compare mobil turbo diesel truck (also fully synthetic) but beware of fakes.

Sa Toyota Dasma they use Amalie 5w-40 for aynthetic oil.

Manual's recommendation is 5w30.

yellow bottle is very good. api-sl has good additives for older engines.
