Caltex Delo Gold Ultra

[RomeoAlpha]

Thanks red_one, so will stick to delo gold para malinis internals ng auto ko.

[RomeoAlpha]

Happy to use delo gold ultra for my dad's vios and my ek (newly overhauled, pati oil pan baba at linis). Kaya ang linis linis ng oil ko kahit 1.5k plus kms na ang tinakbo. Hehehe. Pagtapos ng warranty ng vios ko, delo gold iltra na din gagamitin ko, for now stick to toyota FS.

Yung API rating ay nasa owner's manual ng car mo. Kung wala kang owner's manual, check mo lang manufacturing date ng car mo. Then compare sa release date ng API.

Altis 9th gen (E120, E130; 2000–2008)
Vios 2nd gen (XP90; 2007–2013)

Example, kung 2000 Altis (Gas) ang car mo, pwede mo gamitin Minimum API SL. Kung 2008 Altis (Gas) ang car mo, pwede mo gamitin minimum API SM. But both can also use the latest API SN.

API Rating (Diesel)

API CJ-4 (Current) - Introduced in 2006
API CI-4 (Current) - Introduced in 2002
API CH-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1998
API CG-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1995
API CF-4 (Current) - Introduced in 1990

API Rating (Gas)

API SN (Current) - Introduced in Nov 2010
API SM (Current) - Introduced in Nov 2004
API SL (Still current but nearly obsolete) - Introduced in 1998
API SJ (Still current but nearly obsolete) - Introduced in 1996

I was able to check my vioski manual, and according to the manual i can use, API grade SL or SM. So i can use delo gold 400 pala kay vios ko.


Nawawala manual ng civic ko, hahanapin ko din at maganda kasi properties ng delo 400 eh.

[jasonub]

Camry din sl sm hmmm

[RomeoAlpha]

Most likely, kasi sa wiki parang engine ng altis, camry at vios ung vvti eh developed sometime more or less circa year 2000.

AFAIK, based on API rating alone, pwede. pero i think Delo 400 has >1200 ppm of zinc zddp. makakasira na yan ng catalytic converter. DGU has less than 1200 ppm so safe sa catcon

yup. okay naman. would rather stick sa delo gold for the EK though...

[RomeoAlpha]

thank you, sir. will follow your advise. happy naman ako sa delo gold ultra para sa ek96 ko.

at isosyn technology din pala siya kaya fully synthetic din and grade niya.

mas mura pa ng mga 200 to 300 petot ang DGU compared sa D400.

salamat ulit, Sir Sirkosero.

OT lang - just found out toyota FS oil is about 2,1xx based on price per gallon only. though their price is not too far compared to other brand oil. I understand some of you guys hesitate to buy it coz the price is too expensive before(if not mistaken). pricing is just FYI only.

[d'flash]

guys, question. anong delo gold ung pwede ko gamitin sa sentra 94? nung nagtanong kasi ako sa caltex, wala daw pwede, pang diesel lang daw ang delo gold.

[jmpet626]

Pwede DGU sa inyo sir.


AFAIK SL rating ang DGU.

Thanks Sir, dapat SL ang rating na hahanapin ko. anung filter maganda i-partner sa DGU?

[RomeoAlpha]

AFAIK, ang maganda is baldwin.

pero medyo rare lalo na sa edad ng auto natin.

wag lang vic, pero naka vic/purolator ako for the longest time, until now walang mabilhan ng bosch dito sa amin eh (well out of stock daw).

mas okay syempre ang oem sa vic/purolator.

mas okay sa oem ang bosch.

syempre best ang baldwin.

bili ko sa delo gold ultra is 230petot per liter, or roughly a little bit more than 1k kung 4 liter bottle kukunin mo.

[JohnM]

Filter sizes do not change much. Baka may Baldwin pa rin na swak sa inyo. Try nyo tanong sa seller kung anong compatible sa oto.

[kimbon]

^ +1 here. actually yung gen1 & gen2 vios ay medyo malaki ang diameter ng baldwin BT223 compared sa OEM. sabi ng mekaniko di daw pwede ito ang sabi ko naman basta isalpak mo lang. Hehe

[JohnM]

Onga eh. Tingin sakin ng mekaniko parang "sigurado kayo ser?" Laki kasi ng size difference. Kasya naman

[RomeoAlpha]

i was able to check the API requirement of my ek96 sa manual, nakalagay eh SG or SH which is both phased out na.

kaya stick with DGU na ako.

nga pala mga Sir, ano din pagkakaiba ng havoline FS sa DGU (except ung viscosity index na halos balewala naman sa atin sa pinas ung w grade)?
at between havoline and DGU, which is better for my:

1. ek96
2. 2010 vios
3. 2013 vios

hehehehe, sorry sa dami ng tanong mga guru. haba ng oil thread eh.

[sirkosero]

yung civic 97 ni utol okay naman sa kanya ang delo gold.

yung mga vios namin (2003, 2009 and 2014) naka delo gold ultra + baldwin. okay naman wala naman noticeable change eh. placebo lang.

basta maganda paper specs, okay na for me.

[RomeoAlpha]

^^^ thank you, Sir. although maganda pa naman compression test ko, at kakatop overhaul ko lang, i am thinking to use honda LEV or an equivalent of 0w-30 na oil, or 0w-40 na FS. baka mas maging fuel efficient.

your thoughts?
