Mineral , semi synthetic or fully synthetic?

[SiRbossR]

just bought a jug of top1 hd plus diesel engine oil - crdi. is this a "real" synthetic diesel oil o only marketed as such?

actually this is my 2nd straight time i intend to use this but ever since my zic debacle i want to be sure na if what i'm buying is a genuine synthetic oil.

btw, i'm pairing it w/ a baldwin oil filter as usual.

[Grey14]

Both are 5w40, which car is this for?

Mobil1 tdt for your vehicle sir. Its designed for diesel primarily

Castrol edge works for both petrol and diesel but its not used much for diesels in the US. Was it the black container or the gold container? Ito ba yun sa ace hardware?

Ung shell na FS with pureplus group 3 or 4?

[radz15]

Boss amoyligo. Anong variant ng Zic gamit mo?. Napapa isip nako gumamit ng Zic. Kaso may nagsabi kasi sakin pag synthetic daw masyado na manipis yung oil kaya mas mataas ang chance mag leak sa engine compared pag mineral lang ang gamit. Nasa 85k na kasi mileage ng sasakyan ko (Adventure diesel)

[amoyligo]

Pwede ka gumamit ng fully synthetic. Maling sabi-sabi yan pag gumamit ng fully tatagas or pag galing fully hindi na pwede mag mineral.

Sa montero namin na rent a car 12 lahat yun. Rotation 5w30 and 10w30.

Basta ayos gasket mo hindi tatagas yan.

[RomeoAlpha]

^^^not sure with diesel, pero civic ko na 97 ek, with 185k kms on odo - sanay sa mineral, pero last OCI naka FS ako na 5w40 na shell hx7 with pureplus. So far happy akonsa performance.

Boss pa help naman po, saan po ba ako makakabili ng Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5w-40 cavite area po ako,.

Bro nakAkita ko nyan sa me cash & carry in makati mga 500-600 per liter yan. Meron din RP oil dun

[sirkosero]

dati every 10k din ako magpalit ng oil and every 5k change filter using synthetic oil.

kaso naisip ko, pupunta din naman ako sa ilalim ng kotse para palitan yung filter, might as well isabay na ang oil. madali lang naman eh. i'm hoping the engine will love having fresh oil every time.

ngayon im using either zicA or DGU + BT223 replaced every 5k.

[jaggerx3]

Ano kaya mas okay ? Zic A+, Zic XQ o yung shell ultta ung may pureplus?

[crazy_boy]

pureplus

yan gamit ko sa vios namin. 3000km na. happy naman. hehe ang mahal nga lang sa mga stations.

Depende sa presyo. Sa tatlo na yan pinakamura yung A+. Overprice at overrated ang shell products.

Hindi nagkakalayo sa performance yan. Labanan lang sa marketing.

Mas importante ang una focus sa specification, viscostiy. Last na kung fully, semi or mineral.

Mas maganda matry nyo bawat mga oil para may comparison . Example yung delo gold sikat yan sa mga forum pero pag ginamit ang pangit ng takbo 3,000kms pa lang. Eh transportation business kami kaya kita namin agad.

Ito about dexos rating

The "dexos 1" spec will be relatively rigorous, designed to enhance engine protection AND engine oil longevity. As a result, for an oil to meet the "dexos 1" spec, it will likely be necessary for oil manufacturers to utilize primarily Group III and/or Group IV basestocks in the formulation, certainly adding considerably to the cost of the oil, thus raising the price for the end user. In essence, primarily synthetic oils and high quality synthetic blends will be able to meet the spec.
Additionally adding to the cost of the oil will be the inclusion of molybdenum in the spec for it's anti-wear properties. Although ZDDP is extremely cheap (and effective) as an anti-wear additive (while also working as an anti-oxidant in the oil), molybdenum is incredibly expensive (in the order of 50 times more expensive) and does NOT also act as an anti-oxidant - thereby requiring the use of additional additives to serve the purpose.

Dexos 1 Production Costs Higher Too
Moreover, the costs to produce "dexos 1" oils will also be higher as the result of additional testing costs to make sure that the oil actually meets the "dexos 1" specifications. And, lastly, costs will be higher since there does not appear to be a flexible interchange mechanism in place to allow oil manufacturers to purchase "dexos 1" licensed additive packages or basestock blends from various different suppliers (which ordinarily would provide for additional competition and a lowering of additive package and basestock prices).

Ito about dexos rating

Sir, ask ko lang about yan sa Dexos rating. Diba po requirement sya ng General Motors sa mga oils na gagamitin sa engines nila? Or requirement na rin ba sya ng lahat ng manufacturer?

Thanks
