His daily is a pretty sweet JDM car.. shouldn't add too much mileage to it!10k one year...its that low?
U should lend your car to Izso.
I used to do 15 to 20k km a year, now probably 2k km only......For me 10K or 1 year. Last year I clocked about 10k. This year probably much less perhaps 6K.
Now have a comfier ForesterI used to do 15 to 20k km a year, now probably 2k km only......
Been maintaining cars since mid 80s and I strictly follow 5k/10k km mileage only, don't care if it even exceeds 1 year interval. IMHO the period interval is mostly BS, just to make more money for workshops, oil companies, etc.Do u guys stick strictly to 10k km interval or 6 months (whichever come first) for ur OCI policy?
Nope, forester is wife ride. Now I work from home like you.......hhahhahahhaNow have a comfier Forester
1 year interval is to address the engine oil oxidation, and breakdown of the additive package with the junk floating in it.Been maintaining cars since mid 80s and I strictly follow 5k/10k km mileage only, don't care if it even exceeds 1 year interval.

Naah don't matter as much especially for modern engine oils now. Only complicating the tracking if use period.1 year interval is to address the engine oil oxidation, and breakdown of the additive package with the junk floating in it.
Tesco only has the Castrol 5w30 FS and some Dynolube. Giant I think doesn't have or maybe just the Perodua oil. AEON Big may have some unknown brand for w30. AEON Jusco has the Mitsubishi and Nissan oils.Does tesco, giant have any W30 on promo? I saw mostly W40 from shell, total or castrol last time.
Do we really need thicker oil for engine past 100k km? Been reading around, some says need some says just stick to manual recommendation. Can sifu here shed some light?
I'm still sticking with 5W30 on a 1.6L gamma @ 117k km

That oil around last year or so had promotion down to rm129 but seldom.Problem is 5W30 or 10W30 is never on sale as cheap as 5W40..
The cheapest i ever got for 5W30 was magnatec FS for RM160 at tesco, which is now my current fill.
Ok. Was thinking of switching to w40 since its cheaper.Not really.
If u have been running W30 and the engine does not consume oil then go ahead amd maintain W30.
Aeon promo also 10w40 and 5w40 only, seldom see Xw30 on sale.....Tesco only has the Castrol 5w30 FS and some Dynolube. Giant I think doesn't have or maybe just the Perodua oil. AEON Big may have some unknown brand for w30. AEON Jusco has the Mitsubishi and Nissan oils.
