Engine Oil Grade (meaning?)

[netmatrix]

Some oil filter allows flow inside it to be faster. This can be due to the materials used or design. Still you need to change them on schedule. I know of some guys, change oil 10000km and oil filter at 5000km. So you visit the workshop 2 times.

Guys i've been using Castrol GTX mineral 20W-50 for a very long time.

Then recently i saw a good deal for Mobile One, fully synthetic oil, i bought it and thought perhaps i could give it a try for my 13year old Wira. What do you guys think?

The main reason I'm trying this because I'm sick of the FC I'm having right now - 8.8km/l, approx 2.1cents per km for RON95. That hurts my pocket lol.

I really want to know if it helps, or perhaps worsen the condition of my car? By the way, my car hardly gives problems, pretty well maintained, just not too good in picking the right oil.

If the oil change interval is longer for syn oil, wiil the oil filter perform just as long?

No oil filter must change every 5 k km. If not when the filter element clog then u'll have insufficient oil pressure.

hi guys,

MOTUL product recommended by most tuner/mechanic/track user/daily user.
10W-40 (4100 Turbolight or 6100+ Synergie) suitable for daily user in town area.
also capable to boost up to 1.2-1.7BAR at 5-8K RPM tested by myself approximately 70km for awhile (few time only). as the theory to be use at 5,000km max

for 15W-50 (6100 Synergie) capable to handle high boost & little bit extra distance to gain.
but some say/experience little bit heavy for daily + town drive

At the moment 15W-50(300V Competition) are the best i ever tried for long distance (1,000km ++)
traveling + some speeding + boost 1.4-1.7BAR (shown on the DEFI). At 5,000km the lubricant still in good condition & make me satisfied.

MOTUL semi-synthetics series capable to handle up to 5,000km +/- 2,000km
but for 300V series (fully synthetics) capable to handle up to 8,000km +/- 2,000km

bottom of the line, life spent of the lubricant depends to the driver.
if drive like in track/racing + high RPM everyday, sure reduce the life spent.

P/S:
I used the after market K&N oil filter + magnetic sum nuts. to assure the quality.
learn from the experience people...
