    I wonder if would be buyers of the 1.0L know how to maintain a turbo engine... Baka mamaya nito, mineral oil lang galing sa tabi tabi na gas station ilagay. 😂

    specified ba na synthetic yung requirement ng makina ni raize?

    a lot of mineral oil lists on the reverse label "suitable for naturally aspirated or turbocharged engines..."

    Some might not have that wisdom... May mga kilala ako nakatira sa provinces malayo sa casa, mga DIYers.

    we NCR slickers do not realize how easy it is for us to maintain our cars.

    A turbocharged engine will be inherently hotter and more stressed. With the 2 turbocharged cars I own, I learned to only use synthetic and change the oil frequently. Yung isa ko with direct injection turbo, I specifically use synthetic that is resistant to pre ignition.

    funny story... my sister has her own share of car experiences...

    She uses a semi-synthetic oil for her car (once a year change oil) and she insists that her car is ok
    pare-pareho lang daw lahat ng oil basta wag bilhin yung pinaka-mura, pero wag din yung pinaka-mahal

    sayang lang daw $$$ ko following my car's PMS schedule using a fully synthetic oil

    her current car is a Toyota and its the most reliable car she's driven ever! (previous cars were from Honda and Mitsubishi)

    once the 3-year warranties were over,
    i have our ordinary toyotas change-oiled at the friendly gas station.
    mineral oil, replaced every 5000 km.
    been doing it for ever.

    Mineral oil is fine. Ganun lang din gamit ko sa Honda City ko dati. But we're talking about putting it in a small turbocharged engine... Iba yun sa naturally aspirated engine ninyo...

    Who knows, baka din naman tuned ni Toyota for mineral oil yung 1.0L turbo ng Raize. Looking at its power figures, medyo mahina siya compared sa ibang 1.0L turbo, baka less stressed. But generally use only synthetic for turbo to be safe.
