my car handbook stated 5w30.....................I use 5w20...............went to KL....PD .......all no problem.................just came back from PD two weeks back with a 5w20 oil which is 11000km old.............boh daiji............ [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

 

I using one grade lower viscosity as well but I just find it too thin while checking the EO level.

 

My experience with one grade lower doesn't increase FC. Anyway I still have a lot of green cap left, will use it during yr end [laugh]

so by using 0w30 green cap for a year aroud 12-13k miliage should not be any problem right?

 

Not sure about recommended how many mths to change but for fully syn oil, 15k km should not pose any prob if mostly highway, if always in jam, best to change around 8k km.

Do some justice to our cars.

 

when EO was selling like $20-$30 /L, many stretched it to 12-13K km.

 

Now that we can get it between $5 - $12/L, yet still want to stretch svc interval.

 

Maybe it is good to consider normal mineral EO, and change it at 5K KM.

 

My last few EO change is between 8-9k km.

I'm not sure about our side, but drivers in MY stretch it over 20k km due to mostly highway miles.

 

To some others, it might be due to their work schedule, not solely on price la.

Any stock balance from Tampines Giant for 0W30?

If yes i dropby shortly thanks

 

BTW i'm with the Green Cap 0W30 and i regular redline to 9k rpm K20A and occasionally NSHW avg 170km/hr to KL

So far so good with minimal lost of engine oil

I practice having the oil change out at every 5k interval

For this type of high speed high rev driving, i would suggest you use Mobil EP instead due to it's increase doses of anti-wear additives.
