It takes longer than that for all of the used oil to come out. Compressed air helps accelerate things. It's still not perfect. If it were up to me, I'd leave it dripping through the night but this is obviously not possible when done at a shop, so compressed air is good enough.

And if you're worried about the compressed air contaminating the inside of the engine, rest easy that it won't matter. The by-products of combustion is filthier than outside compressed air can ever be. Also, the inside of the engine is turbulent and whatever trace residue that remained (water vapor, etc.) will be out of the PCV plumbing just a few seconds after the engine has started. All the rest will be burned off as the engine warms up.

I am satisfied with the Xteer diesel 10w30 CI-4 oil for my 2014 Accent. My only regret is, because of this lockdown, I had to extend my o/c a bit longer than I had wanted & the summer weather is a bit too hot this year for the oil. Good thing Inhardly get stuck in traffic.

We tried the Amsoil Diesel Euro formula for the Jetta TDI. Aside from the casa, only Amsoil we found to meet the oil requirements of the VW TDI engine. Oks naman.

Mobil now has an official distributor in the Philippines

topgear writer doesn't even mention the lazmall. "Journalist" kuno

with the pricing of mobil, I'd rather go with Zic or Amsoil.

Just found out na at least CI-4 rating na pala ang Petron Revx x400-800 diesel oils!
Next time diretso na sa Petron car care center ang pms ko and revx oils na lang for my GS and MS. Dala na lang ako ng sarilin oil filter.
