Good Fully Synthetic Engine Oil (10w40) that's easy on the pocket?

[kotiko]

Hi guys!

It's the time of the year again for changing oil.

I've got a 2004 Honda City iDSi under our maintenance and was wondering if anyone can recommend a cheap but good fully synthetic oil in the market?

I used to get Motul H-Tech for about P500 a liter but noticed it's been raised to about P650+ already, so I'm looking for a cheap alternative sana that's about P500 lang rin.

Also, 10w40 is good for the said car, correct?

Thanks!

Try getting MOtul H-Tech oils from S&R.

[kotiko]

Got any idea on the price there?

out of warranty na naman eh, just go for their change oil promo, for 1k, all in na...mineral oil lang nga pero same viscosity that you're presently using.

[kotiko]

Saw S&R price na, it's P640 there e.

I'd prefer fully synthetic na sana since I don't like changing the oil too often...

but Honda's recommendation regarding oil changes across the board is every 6 months...regardless of what kind of oil you use...at least based on their service manual..same length of engine warranty whether you use mineral, sem synt or full synt

Really? Wasn't aware of that... Thanks for the tip... Maybe I should be reading the owner's manual first :p

Unioil sells Idemitsu Extreme Eco 5w30 at 1,300 for 4 liters - it's labeled as 100% synthetic. Maybe they have some other Idemitsu fully synthetic oils in stock?

nakita ko dun sa hyundai tucson thread

Lubricants | Fleet Fuel Philippines

kixx ung brand. seems to be popular among hyundia tucson owners. any feedback on this oil?

[kotiko]

I've read 10w30 is more commonly used for the Honda City iDSi, anyone who can recommend which is better? 10w40 or 10w30?

Thanks for the tip, mas OK sana if they had 10w40 or 10w30!

[Ry_Tower]

If manula says 10w30 then better to use that But since we have a tropical temp, a 10w40 won't be a problem as well.

You may follow the advice that Idemitsu 5w30 is ok IMO.

yan ang dapat ginagawa first day pa lang pagkakakuha ng sasakyan.

salamat sir! try ko muna itanong sa honda spa kung may corkage fee sila before PMS ko. halos kalahati rin matitipid ko sa price ng engine oil.

Nagpa change oil ako ng Idemitsu Extreme Eco 5w30 * 1.3k 4L sa Unioil(official distributor) then dinala ko sa trusted mechanic ko for my 40tkm pms. So far ang mga napansin ko, mas tahimik ngayon makina halos di ko na madinig sa sobrang tahimik hehe at halos wala din vibration sa dashboard at manibela compared sa dati kong oil which is shell helix mineral yung dilaw almost 1k ang 4L. Pansin ko mas tumipid din sa konsumo ng gas. Leading lubricant ang Idemitsu sa Japan at gamit ng ibat ibang casa like toyota honda mercedes pati ata mazda at nissan. Di naman siguro gagamitin ng honda toyota mercedes etc ito as their oem oil kung di ito "kahit papano" ay ok :D
Mura pa.

from what I remember sa manual ng Honda from 0W30 to 10W40 and everything in between pwede gamitin. wala naman naksulat na mas masmaganda one over the others.

pwede na yun change oil promo nila..makakatipid ka talaga. kahit 3X a year or 4X a year ka papalit sulit pa rin 1k lang all in (oil, filter and labor).

1.6k yung 10w40 nila. Group 3 base stocks lang yung idemitsu oils na nakita ko.



Naalala ko dati around 400 pesos lang yung Motul Htech 100 sa S&R a few years ago.

Mas mahal pa 10W40 sa 5W30?
