    Pinadalhan ako ng brother ko from the states ng ganito.....



    Tanong ko lang kung Fully-Synthetic or Semi-Sythetic sya? or just an ordinary motor-oil lang?

    Salamat po!

    10W-30 is within the semi-synth range.
    bakit naman sayang? bigyan mo ako ng 8 liters, hindi masasayang yan.

    Hahaha! What I mean with sayang is......... sayang di ko magamit sa Avanza ko coz naka-fully synth sya. Pero di naman sya masasayang coz might use it na lang sa mga other cars namin.

    Isa pang tanong, kung naka-fully synth yung sasakyan mo then sa next change-oil mo is semi-synth na lang. Oks lang ba yun? Di ba masisira or papangit takbo ng sasakyan?

    Semi-synthetic yata.

    Yes you can change between synth and semi. No problems. I've done it before and no adverse effects.

    Quote from http://www.carbibles.com/engineoil_bible.html
    "There is no scientific data to support the idea that mixing mineral and synthetic oils will damage your engine. When switching from a mineral oil to a synthetic, or vice versa, you will potentially leave a small amount of residual oil in the engine. That's perfectly okay because synthetic oil and mineral-based motor oil are, for the most part, compatible with each other. (The exception is pure synetics. Polyglycols don't mix with normal mineral oils.)
    There is also no problem with switching back and forth between synthetic and mineral based oils. In fact, people who are "in the know" and who operate engines in areas where temperature fluctuations can be especially extreme, switch from mineral oil to synthetic oil for the colder months. They then switch back to mineral oil during the warmer months."

    ok lang yun. i've seen people doing it, even switching between mineral and synthetic with no harm effects.

    of course, dapat observe the regular oil change intervals, and that is the main requirement.

    pero kung dalawang case yan, sobra yan sa iyo. aabutin ng taon yan. bigyan mo na lang kami ng tig aapat na litro.
