    Used oil analysis is done to gather data on metal wear in your engine and used oil quality. For example, if you sent an oil with 5000kms use, the test will determine if viscosity, total base number, flash point is within spec. Can also test for the presence of fuel and water in the oil.

    Based on the results, you can determine if the oil is still good enough to protect the engine or should be replaced. This is the safest way to determine whether an oil can indeed work til 5k kms or 10k kms or more.

    Since I regularly change my oil at 5000 km, I use the 20w50 grade oil of seaoil and for my diesel, the 15w40 oil of seaoil, so far ok ang takbo

    Ask toyota bal to put that condition down in writing- that unless you buy the mobil 1 from them, they will void the warranty- then send it to toyota phil asking them if this is a valid condition on warranties.

    When shifting from mineral oil to synthetic oil, do we need to do an engine flush?

    From synthetic oil, can we revert back to mineral oil?

    no need to flush na... i also doubt you will go back to mineral once you see how the engine runs on synthetic

    ehem. except perhaps for the price

    though the RPs come at a premium over mineral oils, they're still quite affordable. so speedyfix might actually be right, even for the price ;)

    as for me using:
    for Gas: Valvoline 5w-30
    for Diesel: Petron Rev-X 15w-40

    on next oil change, roughly another 1,700 kms to go, i'll try RP.
