Review: Q8 Oils

[gorjothong]

Q8 juice

For me daily use 10w40 semi-synth is good enough already ... i just ask Royal Purple Fully synth cost RM50 per litler and is RM200 per 4 liter and Q8 5w40 Fully synth is RM155 so i still go for Q8 cause more cheaper.

Yeah man!Q8 is real value for money.Royal Purple cronies should get their facts right before they tembak.Wake up bro!RM200 for Royal Purple cheaper than Rm155 for Q8???!!!For me also,Q8 semisyn at RM89 very good already.

service charge wil not be expensive le.... lebih kurang sama jer.....:_:

I heard shops outside, if you bring your own engine oil to them they won't want to do for you wan right ?

Or if they do, they'll charge their workmanship very expensive ... True?

Coz abit unsure whether to buy engine oil from people outside n bring to workshops to service..

 

[yeongk]

Depend for the shop ... my area charge RM5-8 for engine oil and oil filter change.

hello everybody,

sorry if this is a repeated question:

Last time i was using Q8 Semi-syn T650, blue bottle, 10W40

When i went to Enoes yesterday, i can't find T650, end up settled down with Q8 grey bottle, 10W40.

My question is, are they the same? It is used for Civic 1.6 SOHC VTEC.

They are the same. Q8 semi sync oil has gone through repackaging. T650 blue bottle is the old packaging.

Thanks for ur info.

just to share....
was previously on semi then changed to Q8 (semi aswell). 1st time q8 user.
The 1st 2000km as excellent...no tappet (HLA) noise at all ! very satisfied with it. now on my 3000km run and my tappets have come back to haunt me !
anyone has any experience in this ? am very tempted to change another 4L of Q8 again. either that or perhaps this brand isn't suitable for Mazda/Ford engines....

your reviews would be much appreciated

I dont know much about Ford engine. I am driving a Proton with 4G93NA and the engine is well known for tappet noise. With Q8 full sync (5W/40W), it solved the tappet noise right up to 5000km. Same thing happens to my fren's Putra as well. He used same Q8 full sync.

It really depends how severe is the condition of your engine. You can try full sync on your next oil change together with LubeGuard additive. I hope this works for your engine.

thx...though i've been advised before that its not recommended to use full sync on old engines (mines close to 16/17 years)....& its also a rather expensive option ! to try and solve this mojor headache of mine, maybe i'll switch to a full sync oil
