Exactly how fast do piston rings wear out ?
Over a year ago at a workshop I had bumped into a Waja owner. According to him and the foreman, during his second oil change while the car was still new, he was unlucky to have used up a bottle of branded semi syn oil which he suspected was fake. The car had to be overhauled at only 10,000 km!
Heat from high tropical temperatures and daily jams kills most engines. By the way, the luxury limousine -for- hire operator for hotels in KL's golden triangle changes oil at 5,000km and is starting to use Tufoil for better protection.
