This oil sucks big time. If you wanna put a lousy oil in your car, why not go for C.L which costs only 1/2 of the price of shell. From my butt feeling, there's no diff between CL and SHU. I suggest pay a little more for some other better brands like mobil 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nav14 6th Gear April 11, 2010 Share April 11, 2010 I have been on c-----e for past 4 years. Using on my Teana 250XV right now. Prior to that I used Mobil 1. FRankly no difference at all. Singaporeans typical thought process is more expensve means definitely better quality. Dont thrown your money away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My prev and current cars do not really like C.L. and Shell Helix Ultra. The engine's sound is very rough & noisy, and no power @ high rev. Both cars have no problem with Mobile 1, Amsoil, and Redline. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sbtyong 1st Gear April 19, 2010 Share April 19, 2010 I've treid both SHU and CL on my last ride, I think I prefer CL at the end of the day. Not sure if I got this feeling becos both feels the same and CL is 1/2 price or is it CL is really 'better'. Anybody has the same feeling? :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deividz 5th Gear April 19, 2010 Share April 19, 2010 (edited) Once you tried high end oil, you will realise that SHU is really poor. Maybe can only compete with kar lubbe. Then again, never try c-- ---e before. MOTUL all the way......... Edited April 19, 2010 by Deividz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the service advisor at Tan Chong advised me not to waste money on more expensive brands for my V6 Teana. You guys are paying for all their high marketing costs and sponsorships of racing teams, etc. One oil being perceived to be better than another is all in the mind. You pay more means must be better. Typical Singapore mentality. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
