    Do you really follow the 10K km. for the next oil change on your synthetic oils? Or do you change oils at 5K km for synthetic use?

    roydok::: Di ba mahal ang fully synthetic oils? Kaya sinasabi ng karamihan it could go for 10K km? At every 5K ang palit di ba po masakit sa bulsa? :mrgreen:

    Sir ungas mahal nga po ang synthetic compared to mineral oils. What made them more expensive is that they are being synthesized from scratch with similar molecules and better characteristics than mineral oils. Hindi po sila prone to breakdown that will cause sludge formation, higher oil viscosity and poor oil flow. Kaya po pwede sila for extended drain. Some oils with ACEA E5 classification could even go longer than 20k kms basta po minomonitor ang components ng oil like the TBN, etc... Medyo mahal nga po ang oil for a 5k km change kaya po pwede ding every 10k basta palit filter every 5k. Ganito po advice sa akin ng Mitsu casa with the use of their Mitsu Turbo XP !5W-50 synthetic. By the way the Mobil elvac MX is a mineral oil.

    100 po per liter sa Syltech sa Banawe near UCPB. Maganda na din po ang Delo 500 15W-40 (API CG-4/SJ). Sabi niya type 2 na daw base oil nito (hydrocracked) kaya mas resistant to oil degradation. The Mobil Delvac MX is rated higher at API CH-4/SJ. Kahit ano naman pong oil pwede sa 4D56 natin basta minimum of API CD. Kahit murang Shell Rimula J, Petron Rev-X Hauler or Delo 200 na pang jeep ay pwede na. Pero anything of higher spec offers better protection.

    roydok::: Thanks for the added info. I may have to switch to a cheaper brand of synthetic oil this coming PMS. Do you think the Petron All Terrain (fully synthetic) will work well on my engine?

    Yup maganda po ang Petron Rev-X All Terrain as stated by sir jackaroo's scientific used oil assessment in another thread which could be extended more than 5,000 kms of drain. It's also half the price of popular diese synthetics like Mobil Delvac 1 or Mitsu Turbo XP. :D
