VX engine oil in Carrefour

[Ken4555]

I was using VX 5w30 for about 5k mileage and changed to X-gold 5w30.

 

vx 5w30 just like all fresh oil is smooth initially. but after about 2k mileage can feel engine a little rough.

x-gold looks like its going to be same as vx.

 

Do u notice that x-gold bottle is the same as vx as well?

i suspect they are the same oil inside.

 

alot of oils in the market buy their base oils from big players...

 

example i have special additives i add to a base oil i buy from say Mobil1... and do a blend and call it Ken's Lube fully syn 5W/40... i can put what ever claims on the label and i sell it...

k wen i drop by Giant or suntec i sms you...

 

YO Bro Ken

also can, better if you buy for me.

 

may i ask if those extended engine oil such as VX, XY, ABC bla bla. in general, cheaper engine oil.

can it last me 10k before i go for next service?

 

currently i using amsoil extended engine oil, which i changed every 15k.

so far so good. after a year or so, engine oil don't degrade much and i'm getting 14/L easily.

 

tats what i meant... i buy for you if i go there

 

oil change interval, to me depends on driving style... i have an open pod so my mind tells me that my oil gets dirtier faster... haha...

 

how good expensive an oil, unless TC or high com car, to me a BB car wont benefit much from an expensive oil

 

and bro... stop hao lian you got 14km/L ok... u how many cc?... i dont have such good FC... but i full throttle you smell my smoke ah... ...

 

[Thedream]

the VX 5W/40 was thinner then usual... so i gues sthe 5W/30 is even thinner...

 

if your engine was 'rough', but i think FC should have been better?

 

paisei... never measure...

when you guys are saying about buying engine oil from supermart, do you guys mean u just pay the workshop for the labour fee to change for u?

 

How much can you save if you buy your own and get from the workshop?

 

What type of oil can we buy from places like carrefour? Is it only engine oil?

 

Im sry for all the questions, i just want to get more familiar with cars..
