    Good evening po mga Bossing!

    Nissan Sentra '93 po ang kotse ko, GA16DE ang makina. Ask ko lang po kung anong engine oil ang ok sa kotse ko kapag nag-change oil po ako. Tinitingnan ko po yung Havoline SAE 10W40, knowing na palaging sa Caltex Techron ako palaging nagpapakarga ng Gold. Kumpara sa 20W40 ano po ba ang pagkakaiba nun sa 10W40? Ano po yung magbibigay ng mas magandang performance?

    Marami pong salamat!

    Based on my old toycar which is a b13 sentra same as yours the best oil to use for daily is the 10w30. Fuel consumption is good and better acceleration. Multigrade oil can be simply explain as the 10w is use during start up, the lower the count the better the oil can travel inside the engine during start up. The 30 is how fast the oil can travel inside the engine during running due to its lightness, the lower the viscosity the better. The higher the viscosity the slower the oil travel due to its due to its heavier weight. Try looking for oils with seal conditioner since may kalumaan na yun engine to avoid oil leaks.

    Best performance where in a GA16DE can handle based on my experience are the 5w30 oils. I cant say if its advisable for daily use. I only use this light oils every autocross, slalom, rwyb events before.

    Any brand will do just check its specifically designed for gas powered engine. Its really up to you if you want to follow the every 5000 change oil for a vehicle that seldom used.

    What sludge issue? Used Castrol Magnatech 10w40 before in the Avanza and experienced no problem.
