I've used Motul for quite a long time... 40,000 kilometer I think... before I switched to Royal Purple.

I've used 10W-30 before... using 10W-40 now just to see if there's any difference.

Just use whatever is recommended for your engine.

Sir do you have a 6 quart oil change promo package? Car is a Mazda3 2.3l can you provide or do I have to bring my own filter? Thank you.

Since hindi pa nagrereply si speedyfix, I found out sa website nila na unfortunately the 5w-40 is hindi kasama sa 2100 na presyo which includes labor and oil filter. so yung signature niya na 2100=any viscosity of RP + oil filter + labor is mali, misleading siya.

**speedyfix** · April 13th, 2008 04:14 AM

grid, the promo is aimed towards passenger gasoline cars which only consume at most 4 liters of oil (when they consume more we just add the cost of the extra oil to the total). the 5w40 oil actually just arrived and pricing is different for it kaya di sya kasama sa promo, i haven't had the chance to re-do my signature yet. sorry if you think it is misleading but i cannot fit all the details in the sig since it is not permitted by the system.

in any case, depending on your car, 4 liters will probably not be enough so if you decide to go the RP route you will have to purchase the oil individually. plus the oil filters for diesels are 2-3x the cost of the regular filters for most sedans so di talaga sya masama sa 2100.

mazdamazda, glad to hear that bro!

s_quilicot, yup mazdamazda either has his work done with us or in speedlab ata.

Si 06, the mazda needs the motorcraft filter. you can provide it yourself and we can do the rest of the work. we will just charge you for the consumed oil and labor.

sir migs

yesterday nasa LAcars ako and may nakasabay akong civic sa tint Room,
i noticed na may speedyfix and RP sticker sa rear window, i asked the owner and sabi niya jan daw siya pagawa sa shop nyo and he's using RP oil.
he says ok na ok daw yung RP, much smoother ride, he saves a lot on gas and lumakas daw hatak. so its enough for me na jan na ako mag PMS ..

ask ko lang po pasok ba sa 2100 promo ang altis? and how much atf for altis (RP syntheic)..n

the "w" means winter. So for 5w30 it means that its a thin oil that will easily flow at cold temps. Think of it as a 5 weight oil that will not thin more than 30 when hot.

here's a link to valvoline's explanation http://www.valvoline.com/carcare/art...=ccr20040601ov
