Tianmo Hypersonic August 14, 2010 Share August 14, 2010 I believe any change or increase of prices of EO (if any) in Carrefour or Giant would not be so drastic as the increase of charges in night parking. If it is increased by a few cents or bucks (not more than 10 or 20 bucks), I would continue to get it from these supermarkets. :D night parking is 100% leh, no businesses in the right frame of mind got the guts to do that 1......................siao yeh!!! I think lately this EO is getting more support here, and there are ppl who come and see and learn and than thiam thiam go n buy 1, when I 1st saw C@rlube, I think selling at 39.90 or something, no nobody talks about it, it fact there were some history about some joker promoting it so badly. than lately it brings the price down, and ppl starts to talk about it and seems like lesser condem liao, and products are moving off the shelf............. which means there is room for the price to move up back to 39.90, as there is still no product close in term of price at that range.................not forgetting it is pack in 5L which will make the per L price still looks good.

Otan Neutral Newbie August 14, 2010 Share August 14, 2010 Me and my dad both using c-----e and we are very please with it. It is as good as those branded ones but at a portion of the price. Whats more the engine oil treatment packaged with it is also provide noticeable improvement. Yes pour in the engine treatment definitely will enhance the engine oil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Affirmative. But discounting pricing and original pricing of EO are subjective and sensitive. So I am not going to comment too much in case I kena by people here. I have used till my regular servicing interval and car still goes smooth and I do not feel any roughness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken4555 1st Gear August 14, 2010 Author Share August 14, 2010 Same here bro... After thinking how much to invest, I think not worth it for me too as I normally change eo at 5k interval.. yup... i guess the microns of engine shavings, by products of combustion, and watever... will need to circulate in the oil... if the filter is sooooo good at filtering, then should last even shorter as MORE micron debris are caught... so can last longer? no thanks... and if it flows faster, then worse... so far i have used OEM filters... and aftermarket (cheaper) filters... god bless all is fine so far... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
