Currently using Ardeca Synth-SX 5W30 with Donaldson filter. 1200+ kms na natakbo. Ok naman. Parang walang pinagkaiba sa gamit ko dati na Mag1 5W30 with Baldwin filter.
The only time I felt a delay, one or two seconds, in engine response was when I used a Purolator filter bought from that three-letter word hardware.

Sulit talaga Ardeca.

I'm using Protec Ultra 5w-40 malapit na ako mag 10k km.

thanks sa input mga sir, i guess i will just use Shell Helix HX7 (blue bottle), 5w-40 and do a change oil every 5,000 KMS since mas mura sya.

may malaking difference ba sa performance pag mga high performance oil ang gagamitin ko sa isang 3-cylinder car like Mirage G4? fuel efficiency? etc..? thanks!

you can extend that to 7500km. hx7 is very good.

thanks sir *StockEngine, yes - i was told that it can keep up till 7,000 kms but for me, the 2,000 kms is for my buffer sa traffic, idle/stall time ng engine. ok din pala 'to. yung gamit ko kasi dati sa mirage hatch ko is yung Shell HX5 (yellow bottle), 15w-40. gusto ko sana itry to with same practice of using the OEM filter ng Mirage G4. wala akong tiwala sa casa work eversince sir eh. bawal ka tumigin sa work nila, di mo alam if bagong oil ba talaga ginamit, worst is lagpas sa F mark yung oil when you measure it with dipstick. sana wala namang major issue ang oto since lalabas na ako sa casa for my 10k KMS PMS.

My engine oil color looks like #3 in this photo. Shell Helix Ultra 5W-40. 13 months old. Less than 3,000 km traveled. I plan to change oil in December at 15 months.

Umaabot ba sa kulay ng no. 6 ang oil for gas engines? Everytime magpalit ako nasa no. 5 ang kulay ko, so iniisip ko ito na yung sagad dahil ang black oil baka sa diesel engines lang.
