Meron nagbebenta sa mga various forums ng Mobil1 Gold 0W-40, P1600 lang for 1-gallon, P400 per liter. Orig naman, manufactured in Singapore.

But I get mine from Cash&Carry. Yung last na binili ko Mobil1 Supersyn 15W-50, meron Nascar logo, US-made. P410 per liter ang bili ko.

I think 15W-50 is the perfect rating for Philippine driving conditions. Not too thin, and can withstand high temps. Yung mga 0W kasi is better suited for winter conditions, for cold starts. Pero dito 0W is too thin, and might leak sa older cars na di na masyadong maganda ang gaskets.

for the tropical climate i'd suggest a minimum of 10w40 oil.

additional info lang mga brod about viscocity:

0W is for -30C degree
5W = -25C
10W = -20C
15W = -15C
20W = -10C
25W = -5C

0W is much too thin for old engines. 5W is about as low as you should go.

My engine runs sluggish on 15W and above, but if 20W is recommended in your manual, you shouldn't go below 10 or 15.
