kobayashiGT Internal Moderator February 8, 2021 Share February 8, 2021 My go to engine oil is Motul 8100 5W-30 or the castrol edge titanium 5W30. I believe a good engine oil is the best protection you can give for your car. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be legit. but shell engine oil also have different range one. This one is SN certified This one don't have. Cannot just see the wt and the brand of the oil. Alot of oil out there say is fully synthetic, but that is just marketing term. Must learn to read the API standards and the accrediation also. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeniz Turbocharged February 8, 2021 Share February 8, 2021 19 hours ago, Naimed said: When the EO is relatively new, it wouldn’t feel any/much different. The real test comes after 5000km and especially with prolong driving in start-stop conditions. I’m close to 9000km on current Motul 8100 xcess and it feels about the same as when I first changed it. Value for money since I got a few bottles from Lynlex previously (6x5L bottles for 4 oil change) and I’ve used 8100 xcess for my last 3 OC. I think could just treat SHU synthetic oil as mineral oil and needs to change at every 5000km. Anything smooth after 5000km is a bonus. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the latest API SP being sold on the market already. I used to be skeptical about SHU cos when I was driving my previous Honda 20 years ago, Kah Motor used SHU for its servicing. I found SHU a bit rough and also didnt last long. When Kah Motor used the latest SHU on my current Honda, it feels a lot smoother than before. So I don't mind using it for now.

Last time when I am driving my company van, my favourite 0w20 oil is FK Massimo. Really can feel the car become "lighter" ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
