And all casas napinuntahan namin dati (Diamond Quezon Avenue, Union Paco, Diamond Valle Verde, Diamond Marcos Highway, Citimotors Makati, DCT Oliveros) all pointed to the Mobil1 5W-40 oil as the culprit. 5 years ago nangyari yun. Kaya I will not use Motul CRDi Specific or Mobil1 because of what happened to our Pajero FM dati. I will use an oil with a SAE No. specified by the warranty booklet.
i used to put mobil1 5w40 fully synthetic sa pajero ko din before, never had problems, but the mobil1 5w40 now is specifically formulated for diesel engines so i am more confident, also the union motors in caloocan is using 5w40 motul on the vehicles they service there, 5w40 should be a better oil than 15w40, but kanya kanyang gamit lang yan.
