What do you have against total Q7000 10w-40? Is the MRS 10W-40 any better?

The Land Rover Freelander requires 10w40 API SL and I had been looking for it before I settled for Total Q7000 which is 15w40 API SL. If I had known about MRS, maybe I should have tried that but theirs is expensive. 9500 to 7k+ for Total. But I would have used MRS if I had known about it.

I will suggest Oando syn. At least they put vehicles approval on their gallons even though it has not been verified. And they will give you four bottles of coke per gallon, so two gallons, 8 bottles

Manage them, they will change. It is good that you know the deceits in the industry. The average Nigerian motorist has no one to cry to and it has become a norm. The supposed protector is passive and inactive and the regulator is still living in the past. That is the sad story for our vehicles in Nigeria. We battle against fuel and oil. All the trucks have packed up because of the high sulphur content in our dirty diesels. Now poor Toyota is using premium fuel and we dont have it locally except we go to Ghana and buy. Our policy makers are ignorant of the trends in the auto sector. Imagine Api Sd has been in force since 2004. This is disgraceful to Nigeria. There is no excellence in us, we have embraced mediocrity and it has become a way of life. The government that collects road tax and the insurance industry and those that certify a car to be worthy to be on the road without even seeing the car and the customs that defy the order to go to the border and secure our borders are busy harrassing motorists for documents that they should have asked at the point of entry, the other motley gang of conmen in uniform on our roads are not even bothered about the inconveniences of a car to be on a pothole filled roads, using useless oils sold by international brands that have no image to project. Ahhh, I have done my bit.

Let me answer with a question. Your car warranty is 3 years or 100k kilometers. If after 3 years, your mileage is 48kms, are you still under warranty? Change the oil whichever comes first no matter the extended performance you may use

I did. And I was not impressed by the array of engine poisons in their stable. Very wicked assemblage. I think something is wrong with the regulatory authorities.. I am going to do MRS OR LIQUI MOLY.
Nurey has been quite educative about MRS SYNTHETIC 5W-40. 8000KM OR 6 MONTHS.
LIQUI MOLY 15,0000km or a year.
