Pisces69 6th Gear January 12, 2014 Share January 12, 2014 I use Knife oil. To deep fry your chicken wings no doubt. I use corn oil and olive oil. more environment friendly. Same here. More kind to my heart. Knife oil cheaper leh, buy from JB somemore....haha, OK for yr info. Cheaper Msia oils, rice etc r restricted n u cannot buy n bring back to SG. If the msia customs check ty wil confiscate n bring home for their own use. Last time I got a female Msia customs officer try to pull a fast one on me. I had a 10Kg bag of Royal Umbrella premium rice n she check n say I not allowed to buy n wan to confiscate. I look her straight in the eye n tell her this is premium Thai rice not cheap Msia rice. She just walked away. Hahaha. using cheap and good delvac super 1300 15w40 nice oil and very cheap..... nice HDEO. bitog highly recommand product. i think motul, rev 1 too overhyped and overprice........ Fully agree. For our BnB cars we drive from A to B, no need those super high spec oils. Just an average Synthetic oil wil do. I use cheap CL n its more than enough to protect my BnB car till 10K km.

I use cheap CL n its more than enough to protect my BnB car till 10K km. I am on Motul 300V right now for the past 2 oil change. I think so far its the best EO for my ride. Can last beyond 10k without feeling sluggish. Only gripe its the pricing is on the high side. BTW my ride is N.A but on high rev most of the time. Would like to try out the German Castrol as recommended by the bros here. Would it feel sluggish after 7k interval? Because that is the magic number for most of the engine oil I was on previously. Have tried Blitz, FK Massimo, Liquid Moly, Motul H tech, and Shell and the worst among them is Shell unfortunately... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used only once n never again. Used Mobil 1 n Castrol n RP b4 n all very good oils. Now I been using cheepo C@rlube fully syn for many many years n change every 10K km (since ty started selling in SG) n find t the best value for money for my BnB cars. I only buy it when its on offer for abt $30(or less)/5 lit pack. I cjange oil every 10K km without any issues n I even drag it to around 12K km a couple of times without any problems.

Divers 2nd Gear March 23, 2014 Share March 23, 2014 Hi, Checking with bros out there. My ride due to servicing soon. I have 4 engine oils in mind. May I ask which oil you have try and comment. The ideal chronological would be responsiveness, fuel consumption, smoothness and protection. Which is better? 1) Castrol edge titanium 2) Motul 300V 3) Mobil 1 gold 4) Kennol endurance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still as revvy as when you first did the oil change. But the pricing is on the high side. If you travel a lot, I suggest the other 3 in no particular order as its much more cheaper. I just serviced with Motul 300V, 3 days back as I still have excess of Motul from my last oil change. My car needs more than 4 litres of engine oil btw. But my next oil change, I would like to try out Castrol edge titanium and that would be 3 months away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo bro, my AT, recently.........when start in morning, & after work, will have slight jerk the 1st time it changes from gear 1 to 2. After that pretty ok. Just did a drain & refill.

Now so many different types for same make cars even so even some new/blur mechs wil get it wrong. Fill the wrong ATF n u wil destroy yr autobox after some time. Mine is Dexron n now I using Dexron synthetic ATF. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, 6 months I confirm wont hit 10km. So should I really wait for 10km change oil? What is the recommended duration to change oil even its not 10km yet? (eg: 6 to 8 months or 8 to 10 months) ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
