pero sa totoo lang normal na magdarken ang oil regardless of time ng oil change, unless d mo start ang engine, since madami din deposits ang nasa engine natin.

April 10th, 2009 10:38 AM #14if the oil gets dark that's good. it means it's cleaning the engine. if it doesn't then walang silbi yung oil.
check for thicksness in the oil, if it gets too thick or smells burnt then it's been there too long na.

April 24th, 2009 11:22 AM #17Hello Mga Sir,
Last January 2009 I had the Corolla A/T '95 oil changed sa Rapide sa Quezon Ave., regular/mineral lang - AC Delco yung ginamit.
This April 2009 after it ran just about 1.1 kms I checked lang this morning yung Oil, mejo brown na and i don't smell strong odor of burnt oil although i think i smell a little. Is this normal? Ok pa po ba ito eh kasi nabasa ko po sa mga previous posts na maganda pala yung mejo nagdarken yung oil means effective ito. Na-paranoid kasi ako bigla.
And di ba after 5km interval pa palitan or after 5mos. yata, eh since city driving lang after 4mos. kami kaya 1,000+ kms pa lang ang tinakbo.
Papaano po kung di pa umabot ng 5k kms ang tinakbo after 6 mos. let's say 2.5k lang. Kailangan na po bang palitan?
By the way, the next time I change the oil try ko sa Speedyfix, pero regular pa din siguro, is their synthetic purple oil worth it? I will have my brake and radiator fluids serviced sa kanila this week. I've been reading a lot of positive feedbacks here regarding that shop.
Thank you po in advance sa replies.
Malaking tulong po kayo.
