Ask your dentist..its better to brush your teeth twice than once a day

Synthetic is good for the environment though

Much better to use conventional oil and replace it every 5k kms or 6 months. Sa fully synth, you still have to replace the oil filter.

We change the oil not to really change it just bcoz it loses viscosity and effectiveness, we remove dirt.

I agree with you kris_13, I prefer frequent oil change.

The only way to figure out if you can do extended OCI is to do a UOA. Otherwise, 6-month oil changes would be considered safe.

I have my EGR blocked off so I have decided to stick to an OCI of 12 months or 10k, whichever comes first. Oil filter is still changed plus oil top-up every 6 months.

I go with FS 10k or 1yr with top-up & filter change every 6 months.

Re: replace filter only
Di ba madami tumapon na oil? Or yun nakalagay lang sa filter?

I think it depends sa sasakyan.

Sa Swift natin, it's .5-1 liter.
