Mineral , semi synthetic or fully synthetic?

^ Delo Gold is APi CH-4 only, Ultra yung CI-4. Mas mataas additive package ng Delo Gold Ultra.

my money on 400....technically, mas lamang delo 400 kung titignan mo pds/msds nilang dalawa. multi-oil test rated pa ang 400 kesa mx

I have to agree, may halong group III sa chem composition niya eh pero Delo Ultra and Mobil Delvac MX is group II. But if hindi naman lalampas sa 10,000kms COI na plan mo, kahit saan dyan ang piliin, and do get the one that is cheaper and readily available sa'yo dapat para yan na gagamitin mo normally.

Ung Delo 400 synthetic ba ito kaya mas mahal kumpara sa Delo Gold and Delo Gold Ultra? And ung API rating ng Delo Gold and Delo Gold Ultra mukhang parehas lang. Additives lang ba ang pagkakaiba?

[miko101130]

yung ZDDP pala pag ka under ka nang CI-4 category could range between 5-15% of the total composition of the oil...
I have read somewhere that Delo Gold ultra 15w40, was specifically made for markets with 3 set of categories as basis for the development, mainly Longevity/ Engine Protection/ heavy duty performance...

[Retz]

Okay, so ung Delo Gold Ultra, Mobil Delvac MX and Valvoline are all API CI-4 rated. If you are gonna rank them from best to good. Tama ba ito ----> Ultra > Mobil Delvac MX > Valvoline ?

[miked]

pwede bang imerge na lang sa kabilang thread......nahihilo nako sa kakalipat. hehehe

how about gasoline engines ano naman ang maganda and affordable that is safe enough for 10k OCI.

Up ko lang ito para sa mga oil gurus here.

Delo Gold Ultra/Mobil delvac Mx or any diesel oil with API CI-4 and SL rating. Yan ang maganda for extended oil drain itervals eh. Again balikan yung manual ng ride mo if designated na API SM/SN dapat. Yun kasi yung kelangan if may catalytic converter ride mo eh. Bawal dun yung mataas zinc which is marami yung mga API SJ/SL oils most of the time. But if manual recommends SL rating, IMO the best pa din mga diesel oils even for gasoline engine. Nakalagay din naman sa bottle nila yun eh.

okay thanks sir. this was brought up by sir ginnova and for the vvti engine, API SL or SM is recommended in the manual. So, I guess they could also use Delo Gold Ultra or Mobil Delvac MX for their gasoline powered engine.

For modern CRDi engines specifically for those korean SUV's which is powered by R-eVGT engine, will the Delo Gold Ultra/Mobil Delvac MX or any API CI-4 rated diesel oil work on that type of engine? o kailangan talaga ung mga fully synthetic oil like Mobil 1 or RP. I have read in other threads na dapat synthetic oil ang gamitin with that particular type of engine. Kindly advised. Thanks.

Sir, paki post naman kung saan meron available preferably within Manila area itong mga API CI-4 rated na diesel engine oil (mahal kasi sa Caltex and Ace):

1. Caltex Delo Gold Ultra
2. Mobil Delvac MX
3. Valvoline

Thank you and more power.

[miko101130]

sir retz, usually sa caltex ako bumibili lang delo gold ultra... mapapamahal ka pa kasi kung lilibot ka at hanap mas mura yung natipid mo nagastos din sa pang gas , hehehe..

mobil delvac nagkalat yan sa banawe area...

valvoline eh official partner nila ang ace sa distribution at retail... so mostly sa ace nga lang meron, meron din pa onti onti sa labas pero limited ang options in terms of model line up mostly pang motorsiklo makikita sa retail...

[Retz]

Thank you sir. cge, sadyain ko na lang ang Caltex.

BTT:
I have also noticed the Mag 1 All Fleet engine oil for diesel engine it sells for around Php330/Li and when I read the label I'm surprised that it is rated as API CJ-4.

[holdencaulfield]

sige try ko nga delo gold next oil change. dungis kasi ng mga caltex stations dito, katamad din mag DIY.
tumahimik 4ja1 ko sa HX5. sana ganito lang until the next hundred kms.

tama ka diyan, madungis mga caltex stations, and mostly ang parokyano nila ay mga jeep and trucks na naka-park harap nila... tapos nagmumukang talyer yung gasoline stations...

hindi naman lahat ganun, pero its a generalization that i think has some basis... hehehe...

haha....yung petron dito ang suki ng mga jeepney dahil mas mura petron oils....nilalangaw nga yung caltex eh.

nga pala gusto ko rin subukan kung sakali yung fuchs lubricants. as per sa konting msds na nakita ko sa net mukhang ok. makikita pa rin kung papano..hinahanap ko lang yung location dito sa amin na sinabi ng officemate ko.

[AC]

guys.. pasuggest naman po ng suki supplier ng langis:D

[Retz]

FYI lang, Shell Rimula R3 X Php204/Li and Shell HX5 Php254/Li sa Shell station.

[Ry_Tower]

^ Shell Rimula R3 X ka na lang diba. Better rating and addtives pa.
