I'm not trying to attack anyone's hustle but telling people to use an oil for as much as 12k-15k miles which is equivalent to 5-6 months is so wrong and misleading.
For Christ sake read the back labels of these oils, they still strongly advise you to follow your owners recommended oil intervals (5-6k miles)
My point is the synthetic oil is actually great and also the best in the market, it reduce engine wear and tear, and can go as much as 15k miles on USA European free clear roads with less traffic
But not on Lagos Uber biz with consistent short trips, Consistent Stop and go, consistent off and on engine, annoying unending Lagos stop nd go traffic, ur slug and carbon build up will be so much ehh.
U can still help yourselves with some YouTube videos, all foreign expect mechanics strongly condemned the 15k miles oil change idea

Take it or leave, USA has the best standard from cars that come in into the USA. Are u aware that before any cars coming to the American market has to comply with USA safety standard... even health care ,just to name a few .... or u think USA is a lawless country or dumping ground...

thebigkendo:


Dru my point is US standard is not the only standard.. And no standard is the best stardard..
Nigeria has no standard we all know that sir

dru23:


Funny guy wetin concern ,I got them for personal use.. I treat my cars well .. And funny enough these things dont cost alot

dru23:


But am sure u prefer American Spec Toyota cars...

slamstanlee:
what of the ones that will enter and ask; have you started the trip?
Shio....
Me; Not yet, but you know you have to be in the car before i start the trip.
Some will answer me yes. Some will look stupid

thebigkendo:

thebigkendo:


You started getting your mobil 1 for personal use.. We know how it ended

dru23:


Yes o Your Nigerian Mobil for 5k naira .. Lol ...dont hate bro ..just learn from me ...lol funny guy ...

dru23:


You are such a smart guy ....most of the Toyota cars that u see on the road outside Japan are made for export o.. Japan is a very small country .. And japan dont make big cars at all .. They make and export cars base on what will sell in those countries.. Most of the Japanese cars u see on Nigeria u would not see them in Japan..

Fun Fact :: have been to Japan few times oooo

dru23:


Lol .... If that is the case Mobil 1 extended performance should be out of business by now ... and also cars like Toyota Camry new models like 2011 up ,recommends changing oil every 10k miles with full synthetic oil ,mineral oil every 3k to 5k miles ...

slamstanlee:
make i no talk, if not my stories no go finish for a week here

dru23:



Back to Lagos traffic .. Thank you for bringing that up .. For the wear and tear of Lagos traffic.. Than you need to use better quality oil than ,which if course you dont use ..most of the oil that enters naija market will not meet international standard, especially the USA standard ..now that been said ,your cheap oil that u use ,u should be doing oil change every 2k miles ....

franksam2009:
this is very true but what I am against is you telling people to use Uber cars for 12k miles be4 oil change, which is very wrong

thebigkendo:

Baba, abeg, how market dey for this rainy season?

Lolzz, don't make them look stupid.
Some are actually being concerned, u know it's possible a driver may forget to start a trip especially when a nice rider get in and immediately engage you in a conversation.
It does happen, some will be the ones to tell you to start the trip.
