yan ang di ko alam. di pa ako nakakapunta ng marikina eh.... hehehe.
mobil fully synth i think is around 2.4k/gallon.

here is what you can do.... you can buy mobil fully synth at Ace Hardware. It costs around 200 pesos cheaper. then bring it to servitek for the oil change. dun ka na lang bumili ng filters and other things that you would need. mahirap kasi bumili ng filters kung di mo alam ang size and type.

di ka ba dadayain sa casa di mo naman kasi nakikita ano ginagawa nila. malay mo ba talagang pinapalitan ng oil and oil filter baka di naman pinalitan. anyone had any experience na ganito

makiki-ride na rin ako sa thread na 'to. lampas 5K na rin tinatakbo ng kotse. more than 3 months na rin ang nakakalampas since last change oil. pag tinatanong ko naman sa shell and petron service boys, ok pa naman daw ang oil. should i insist on changing the oil? or bayaan ko nalang muna? TIA sa mga magrereply

yup, experience it about 3-5 times na for our altis and vios(eto recently lang for the 60k km pms) sa vios, we suspect na mineral oil lang ang nilagay instead of synthetic.

anung car ba yan sir? if every 5k km ang interval ng pms(change oil, oil filter). dapat pa change oil ka na.

and dont trust gas boys, di naman nila alam yan, basta nakita nilang brown pa at di pa sobrang lapot oil mu, ok pa sa kanila yan.

what really matter is the distance travel using the oil on your engine and yung servicing/changing intervals.

just follow the manufacturers intervals and periodic maintenance..you'll never go wrong...silipin mo yung owner's manual mo...kung diy guy ka sundin mo pa rin yung periodic maintenance ng manufacturer natin ...you can never go wrong.

for innova gas use a 10w30 oil. for the diesels use 15w40. gas requires 6 liters, diesel requires 7.

May kamahalan oil filters sa ACE pero at least hindi fake. Merong fake kaya ingat sa pagbili.

Sir me shelf life ang oil. Check mo na lang. Keeping one set for a year might not be a good practice. Mas maganda "fresh" pa oil gamitin mo.

And the best time to do an oil change is before the 5k-10k mark or the 3 months-6months-12 months period.
