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.
