try mo... tapos report mo sa'min performance :D magkano ba yan per gallon? kung P$$$$ e wag na lang

I've tried 15w-40 rated oils na like petron rev-x trekker, Shell helix diesel, castrol CRD, and caltex delo gold 15w-40. tingin ko (subjective to ha), da best ang caltex delo gold saka yung castrol CRD in terms of value-for-money == mura pero ok :D

ang di ko pa na try shell rimula 15w-40, saka castrol GTX 15w-40 . mas mahal ng konti sila compared to the brands I listed. above.

[Jeepcruizerph]

thank you very much Master rsnald...

i think mura tong nabili ko...115 pesos per liter and 440pesos per gallon....distributor ng Elf products sa Angeles City...

sana maganda ang results nito...

sabi nila kasi hindi kaagad umiitim yung kulay ng oil na to.

[vinj]

Yup, ok yan given the API ratings. CH-4 is one of the highest already (the highest is CI-4) for diesel oils.

For gas engines, API SL is the highest AFAIK.

Just to reiterate what i mentioned before on one of the 4x4ph threads before, oil that gets dark is actually good since it shows that its doing its work on absorbing the dirt from the engine. What you should look at is the viscousity of the oil when you drain it.

MObil 1 Synth for example turns dark already after 1,000-2,000km of useage. The Mobil Delvac i used before would get dark after a week or two of useage.

On value for money, so far so good ako with the CITGO oil i got from S&R (CI-4 rated na rin siya)... I'll know more after a few more thousand KMS. Petron Trekker is also good (CH-4 rated and is cheaper then Delo Gold Multigrade).

[scanner]

Mobil Delvac MX is also CI-4. Available na sya in 5 liter containers. Yung iba 4 ltrs lang ang pinakamalaki. 4 1/2 ltrs ang kellangan sa xwind. so far ok naman sya. P540 yun 5 liter container.

thank you very much mga Sirs....

buti nalang nag extra 1 liter ako 4 1/2 pala tnx scanner

ako 4 liters lang kinakarga ko kahit new oil filter
b4 sa alabang isuzu dala ko 5 liters la na bumabalik ng lumipat ako sa cvt isuzu 4 liters lang ginagamit nila san kaya napupunta yun 1 liter ko dati sa alabang?

[rsnald]

4 liters lang kinakarga ko, with oil filter change pa yun. nung minsan sinubok ko 4 1/2 lampas sa full mark sa oil dipstick.

nung sa casa pako nagpapa change oil, 5 liters lagi wini withdraw nila. minsan binigigay sa kin yung extra 1 liter...minsan hindi. ang gulo nga e. :confused: dinudugas ata nila pag di mo binantayan. kaya mabuti pa DIY.

[Jeepcruizerph]

oo nga kaya ganon ako umalis sa casa nawawala yung isang liter huhuhu

anyone knows the api rating of the xwind?

[vinj]

Before, naka-change oil ako ng libreng oil sa CASA because the mechanic i spoke to (who happened to be a relative of our old family driver) had a lot of extra oil left over.

When i go now for service at the CASA, i ask them to set aside the extra and they do it naman (i bring in my own oil). After several oil changes, i have enough extra oil for an full oil change.

[boknoyxtrm2001]

ako po laging 5 liters... kada change oil..

kasi po


6 liters ang engine dry..


pag sinabko naman sa kanila na hep hep hep.. walang 1-2-3 nang langis ha... binibigay naman nila

Mater rsnald...ang ganda ng perfomance ng elf product lesser smoke and pagkatapos ko ng biyahe from work 15km 100-120kph takbo ko....check ko engine ko and hood...ayun ang lamig parang engine...di gaya ng dati super init di mo man mahawakan yung engine...lamig in terms of parang may sinat lang

nagtaka ako bat dati...pagdating ko ng bahay...open ko kaagad ang hood kasi ang init ng engine...

115pesos per liter
420 ata per gallon

[rsnald]

thanks for the update master jeepcruz

schedule ko rin yan elf oil sa trial ko.... I'm almost due for my 85K oil change. kaya lang nakabili nako ng castrol GTX Diesel 15w-40. so far eto na mga nasubok kong engine oils
1. Isuzu IGMO (SAE40) = eto engine oil ko nung under warranty pa ko. = di gaano swabe. maingay pag matagal na.
2. Petron Rev-X trekker (15w-40 multigrade) = swabe
3. Shell Helix Diesel = medyo swabe pero maingay
4. Castrol CRD Plus 20W-40 = mas swabe
5. Caltex Delo Gold 15w-40 multigrade = super swabe :D
6. Caltex Delo Gold monograde SAE40 = di masyadong swabe

7. Castrol CRD GTX Diesel 15w-40 = malalalaman pa lang kung swabe

yan ang ang "swabe" rating ko ;)

[Jeepcruizerph]

hello sir...ok din po ang performance ng engine oil na ito...I already used it maybe thrice on my crosswind...influenced by my father on our grandia...kasi eto ang mabili sa cabanatuan city...swabe naman po sya but when I read other crosswinders ng best oil for crosswind...nagtry ako ng delo gold multigrade...and IMO mas swabe ang delo gold multigrade..pino ang takbo and tahimik ang makina...by that ako naman ang nakainfluence sa father ko to try delo gold multi..ayun very satisfied sya tapos yung grandia namin eh tumaas ang idle rpm nya after the oil change at naging pino and smooth ang takbo..

[butirog]

Ang pinaplano ko for now is Petron Rev-X trekker 15w-40 - Sa 170php per liter pala san my petron taguig, ung 1 pinsan supervisor doon pinsan ko kaya doon ap ako kuha.

Gusto ko din subukan ung Petron All Terrain oil na 5w40... kung my nakasubok na kaya nito sa xwind nila???

Btw, naghahanap kasi ako ng oil na tulad nung nilagay sa rapide mahal kasi eh pag un ang bilin ko... 10w40 and semi synthetic..

no kaya ang maganda na alternate oil na ganun grade as well?

[Gerbo]

Yeah. People here has so much rave on the Caltex Delo Multigrade.

But , I have not tried it yet on my Crosswind and Fuego, both with 4JA1 engines.

Tried the Petron Trekker. Ok naman. Ang pinak-ayoko is the Shell Super Diesel. Lalong maingay takbo ng makina.

Currently using the Mobil Delvac MX. So far ok naman.

A mechanic acquaintance of mine told me a story that Castrol is supposed to the best oil according to laboratory tests done abroad. Personally, no experience yet with either the GTX or the CRB.

Mga pare, isuzu commonwelath uses Mobil DELVAC 15-40......very very noticeable yung improvements sa engine and ride conditions..... better than IGMO....
