OK so I tried searching the forum for a topic discussion on engine oils but unfortunately topics are restricted to certain car brand within car subforum
Would like to gather all car enthusiast opinion here.
From my understanding
There's mineral, semi and full.
Since this is best of the best topic we will just talk about full.
Full synthetic is group 3, group 4 and group 5. 3 being refined from crude oil
4 is PAO and 5 is ester based.
So many advertisement and testimony with pictures of cars clocking 200k km above using chemlube ester based oil open up gasket not a single deposit of carbon found.
So my ques:
I have a 10yr old nissan Latio sedan 1.6
Nv really bother much on its performance last time (point A to point B workhorse car). Used semi synthetic for 8 years and now total quartz 9000 10w40 full synthetic 2 years.
If I use ester based oil would it slowly clean up the deposits on my car?
Plan to foam clean the valves and throttles and engine flush first next change
Another ques is for newer cars.
If say I have new nissan x trail 2018 and still under warranty would using other oil void the warranty?
And do cars like myvi icon 1.5 worth putting ester based oils if I go long distance and 60 highway 40 city
Is the price diff worth it?
Brands wise?
