    if you want that oil to lessen, you have to put catch can.. or if you want it to completely disappear you have to disconnect the PCV hose and let it vent the vapors into the atmosphere...
    miko, was able to find the culprit. it was a loose clamp on the turbo. tightened it already.


    had my oil change today on my 4m40 to Zic UP 10w40. coupled with Baldwin BD28. i got the last piece from Volmax early march.

    miko, first impression of the oil, mabaho. haha! the smell is unpleasant. but after using it for 350km straight yesterday, the engine seems to idle very smoothly. probably because of the viscosity. 10w40 vs 15w40(old oil). will try to observe pa in a couple of days.

    Sir, check ninyo din kung golden pa din ang oil color after 500kms lalo na with Baldwin BD28. Still got a golden oil color after 500kms with Fleetguard LF3564. Panalo talaga ang price at performance ng ZIC UP.

    actually checked it right after oil change. but it was a bit dark agad. probably cause the previous oil i use was really really dark when we drained it. but its ok since i know im using a good oil + filter combo. will drain the oil after probably 5-6000km and have it analyzed.

    Miko, can you PM me the contact of the company with used oil analysis? thanks!

    Hi Sir Doc,
    Maybe you can supply us some filters. I think a lot of member would buy from you. Just making some suggestion.

    I noticed the engine response to be smooth even at 4,500kms with ZIC UP. This was with OEM oil filter only. I'm hoping for an even smoother response upto 5,000+ kms with Fleetguard LF3564. ZIC SD5000 (15w-40 multi-grade with CF-4 rating; Php 170/liter) was already rought at 4,000kms with OEM oil filter.
