[Rncw]

hi, i'm driving an altis and i've changed to shell helix syn oil during 5K servicing. i intend to change to either mobil1 or AMSOIL 5w30 at 10K, plus filter.

 

 

Hi Admin,

 

What would you recommend for Vios 07?

 

Is it advisable to change it at 5K servicing?

 

Please pm me your recommendation and price.

 

Tks.

bro, im still on RP 5/30 on my 80+K kms ride

 

Hepi n still hv few qrts to tide me thru 100k before i chg to M1 10/40, bought at Giant $12.80 during promo tat time. Sori dun hv da one u request...

Do you observe any improvement in fuel consumption after switching to Shell Helix during 5K servicing.

 

Tks.

Ya I saw the promo for the M1. I sud have got some too.

 

Anyway I might just fill with cantlube 5w40 which is on promo now for $28.90/5 lit. Much cheaper than RP anyway.

 

I also considering 5w30 but worried if I use cantlube, it might shear down to a 20weight oil by the time it reaches 10K km.

 

I might also get Toyota Type-IV for the ATF change. Also much cheaper than the Max ATF.

i'm a novice driver and been only driving for less than a year. after changing to helix at 5k, the pickup slightly faster. overall the car seems slightly more power and smoother. FC wise, i think about the same, depends on how you drive.

[Singer]

yup, type IV at $25/4 ltr is a better deal

thanks

The heavy lubes from RP and Redline are very highly rated. Can't go wrong with them. I'm using Redline MTL. Was on RP's Maxgear 75W90.

[Trex101]

Will depend on what car model you driving?

[Ah_low]

K, thanks for the information.

[Jemjem]

RP is cheaper right? if both are as good, maybe I will try RP first.

 

Thanks bro.

Can try Redline MTL + Redline MT-90. That way its not too thick and not too thin.

[Jemjem]

Portion of the mixture?

Using Amsoil 20w now. Smooth and silence! Think the pick up is faster tho.

[Rncw]

for Altis, which syn oil is good?

[Trex101]

Your Kia Cerato need 2.15L of 75w85 GL-4 manual gear oil, I would recommend same as Octopus 50/50 Redline MTL and MT-90.
