Adventure Need a Change Oil ...???? HELP

[tom_guts]

mga sir thank po sa lahat ng advice.. ask ko lng po ulet my idea po ba kayo kung magkano magpachange oil sa mga casa... thanx po

Chief kung hindi na cover ng warranty advie gls sport mo pwede na sa labas ng casa yan! you can go to your nearest "reputable" gas station (like petron and caltex). Not only that labor is cheap for oil change and tune ups, pwede ka mgdala ng oil of your choice sa kanila, unlike shell wherein there is extra charge if you're not going to purchase their oil! Although shell gas stations has more likely casa-type service (Helix Service Center), may package din naman yung ibang mga gas stations and they are also equipped to provide good pms (depende sa branch!--makati area, quezon ave area...) similar to what casas do.

usually 150 pesos ang change oil sa gas station.

may bayad nga sa shell pag magdadala ka ng oil mo. ung ibang station, ayaw pa tangapin hehe pero sa caltex, walang extra charge.

to sum it up on labor for oil change;just to give you a heads up for your budget....
150-200 Petron*
150-250 Caltex (depende sa branch)
400-500 Shell Helix Center (includes 10 pt. check up)

*abutan mo lang yung mechanic ng 50-100 (discretion mo na!) pwede mo na pasama cleaning ng air filter mo (thru the use of compressed air) and wiping of engine bay w/ a clean cloth!

just avoid using "engine flush or motor flush" (or any kerosene based flushing chemicals!) and compressed air on the engine during oil change!

mga sir thax sa advice kaso indi po ba dapat eh OEM ang oil filter na ikakabit nla kpag sa mga gas station indi po kya magkaproblema kpag indi OEM ang oil filter na ikakabit nla

[tom_guts]

I still go for oem's no matter what! madali naman maghanap ng oem oil filter for mitsus chief..you can go to a nearest atco or el dorados! Just buy the oem oil filter and the oil of your choice before bringing it to any of the recommended gas stations. BTW, please take note of the required oil viscosity on your Advie (check your manual!)

Kung walang OEM, puwede din Vic. Maganda din performance niya, comparable sa OEM IMO. sa advie pwede na ang 15W-40 na API-CF or above.

+1 In the absence of OEM oil filters, price-wise and quality---I would also go for VIC-Eiken Industries filters (made in Japs pa!) Careful lang po sa pagbili according to some loyal users (that includes my dad!) marami na rin daw po naglipanang fake or imitated VIC filters...make sure you buy them at authorized outlets!

Di maselan ang Advie kaya pwede na ang VIC. Yan din gamit ko. Pero paminsan minsan pinapatikim ko rin ng genuine basta napadaan sa El Dorado

VIC and Trekker (15w40 multi-grade) ayos na ayos ito sa Adventure mo.. You cab also use DELO-Gold-Multi Grade and Castrol GTX 15W 40-- These are tested oil that would not break your Bank.

VIC - Tested and proven !
