    shell helix plus (blue) gamit ko...so far so good naman.basta sa service mismo ng shell ka kumuha ng lanigs wag sa labas kasi may namemeke na rin yata ng shell oils. i stay away from castrol kasi may halong tubig daw.

    kung everyday driving lang naman no need for fully synthetic. just be practical

    Thanks nagtanong tanong na din ako sa nearby gas stations, shell and petron almost the same price ng semi- synth its around 1,700 inc filter and flushing, planning to change oil next week just asking opinions because wala pa me alam talaga. My dad also recommend shell kya lang ever since daw kaya lang lagi naman 1.3 engine nya, akin 1.6 na SIR kaya nag sesecond thought ako sa judgement nya

    no need na flushing, dagdag gastos din yun and isa pa may mga strong additive din daw sa flushong oil na nakaka harm sa engine. mas mganda if kaya mo DIY yung change oil, jack up the car, drain mo oil magdamag para talagang ubos, change the oil filter, put new oil in. voila!

    yung tune up ibang usapan na yun, hehehehe

    for me, any brand as long as tama ang viscosity na ilalagay mo as what your manual recommended. me, i'm using Petron Ultron Rallye (10W-40), every 7K or 7 mos. w/c ever comes first.. P1499.00 all in, no need for flushing.. dito sa suki kong Petron C5..

    Why not go for full synthetic para mas maganda hehe CITGO Lubricant gamit ko sa civic ko, Fully Synthetic 10W30. ganda ng performance. Made in USA siya. Give it a try.

    hehehe! ito na naman tayo pagdating sa engine oil... been this situation before.. contemplating "ano mas maganda?"... halos nabasa ko na ata lahat ng forum/thread sa net talking about "w/c engine oil is the best.." siguro papz, if budget is not the problem.. go try those fully synthetic... you can go for Royal Purple, Motul, etc... just my 2 cents. ;)

    royal purple kahit mahaluan pa ng ibang viscosity or mineral base or semi synthetic na engine oil ok lang maganda pa rin ang performance.

    pag royal purple ang ginamit mo gaganda ang andar ng makina mo.

    Don't buy CITGO, si Hugo Chavev, dictator of Venezuela ang may-ari nyan. Dami nag-boycott nyan sa US.

    Should be about PhP2500 or less for the oil change. I used Royal Purple 10W-40 on my Jazz and I have no complaints. Trackday proven.

    Or get the Honda Synthetic Oil sold at sulit.com.ph (got mine there) and visit any gasoline station to load it up. This would cost you around 1.7k~1.9k all in all. ;)

    Thanks Type 100 and patricksee. Does the package include flushing? I've read that it's not a good practice to do it. If I insist on not including the flushing, what would be the procedures? If flushing will be done, what could be the effects on the engine?

    Nah, no flushing at Speedyfix. Just your plain old oil change: Drain oil till bone dry, replace the oil pan drain bolt, and top up.

    I have yet to see any benefit from flushing...my two cents
