Tesco Engine Oil Sales is on

[ixeo]

You can store for 20 years oso its ok, but before you use it shake the bottle vigorously because the additives can fall out of suspension.

Not sure if shaking is required, lol. But from the FAQ of the largest American oil producer/blender:
http://www.valvoline.com/about-us/faq/general-motor-oil-faq

Does motor oil expire? If not, how long does motor oil generally last?
Valvoline motor oils do not have documented expiration dates. When stored under optimal conditions, the product remains stable for an extended period of time. It can be used as long as the American Petroleum Institute (API) rating on the label continues to meet or exceed the requirements listed in your car’s owner's manual. If the rating is still current, we advise you shake the container before use to blend any additives that may have settled.

Awesome collection there dude

Really love 0W40 when I tried the new Helix Ultra. It feels great on new engines. In the Clio RS the lightness was substantial

Would you ever sell any of those Mobil 1?

Part of my stash..

I've used the Shell Helix Ultra (old packaging) on the 4B11, I can safely say the Total Quartz is significantly quieter better than the Shell. (unless the new one is reformulated) I scored that shell at RM99 and RM129, then moved on to Total due to the 5L packaging -- worked out cheaper. Petronas oil used by Proton service centre is pure rubbish and the wrong weight.

Shell uses their proprietary XHVI base oils, while superior to regular cracked oils, it is still a Group III oil. If it can be had for RM99 then its a bargain. Otherwise, at RM129, I'd rather pay a tiny premium for the M1.

@Tom, you want to try out the M1? Its 4L packaging only.

i doubt we can used it after 20 yrs. the additives might detoriated or contaminated

yes, just illustrating to you, BTW blackstone labs did a test on 20 year old oils, the test turned out great. Additives still as it was.

Yup! You can actually score it from Tesco yourself. They run offers from time to time. Between RM159 to RM179. Even at RM179 it's *ok*.

It's seasonal. I seriously have no idea how the pricing works. Which is why I just whack a huge stash when they do promo.

..

I thought Petronas makes pretty good oils, or is that a case of just incorrect oil viscosity specifically for your car?

Incorrect viscosity. Result is pure crap.

 

[vr2turbo]

Incorrect viscosity. Result is pure crap.

But they have many range, sure got one that is of right viscosity?

 

[6UE5t]

Btw has anyone tried Hunting's engine oil sold in AEON Big (ex Carrefour)? It's very cheap at only around rm40/3ltr, viscosity 10w30, probably mineral oil eh?

Proton SC don't carry it. Cause Proton sucks.

Today I saw Tesco own brand now on promo, 5w40 FS @rm85/4ltr.

Given ample choices out there.. wouldn't touch house blended oil, unless we know who is the blender.

Yup agree, better stick to stuff that we are familiar with, reputable brands.
