Pls how good is hardex sn gold fully synthetic engine oil?

Why do you want to risk your US Spec Lexus RX engine with Hardex when you can have the US Spec Toyota Oil 5w30 or even the Mobil-1 Advanced Full Synthetic Oil? If you see what bad Oil can do to the engine oil strainer you will always insist on the recommended oils.

Call 09086679585 let us give you an unbeatable deal on either.

Hello Niaralander, Try Castrol Lubricants. You will be very happy you did. You can get more information on Nairaland

@ Castrolube

Another reason why I won't touch Castrol is because their 5w-20 has an API rating of SL and an ILSAC rating of GF-3.

API SL / ILSAC GF-3 certified oils are for cars manufactured between 2001 - 2004. This is something a lot of people are unaware of.

The majority of oils today are API SN / ILSAC GF-5 certified and are suitable for cars manufactured from 2010. They are also backward compatible which means you can use them where SM, SL, etc are specified.

Paying N10,000 ( or more ) for an older spec castrol oil when i can choose another brand that gives me present spec for same amount or lower makes little sense.

The awareness will only get better.

I use Total quartz 9000 5w40 for my Nissan Primera, but am thinking of changing to 5w30

Hello guys. I drive a camry 2000, and service with oil SAE 5w30. Looks like the oil is scarce in the market. Pls What alternative oil spec will be compatible with my engine? Or is not advisable to change oil spec? Cc boldx

Oil isn't scarce.

You have several brands ( Coastal, Milemaster, Hardex, Lubex, Castrol, Mobil1, Valvoline, etc ) in the market ranging from N6,500 to N18,000 for 5 litres.

Alternative viscosities open to you are 5w-40, 15w-40, and of course the ever popular 20w-50.

How long have you been using milemaster pls? I would like to try it out

dino2006:


How long have you been using milemaster pls? I would like to try it out

About 4 yrs.

On a 2010 Honda Accord ( 5w-20 ) and a 2011 Toyota Corolla ( 5w-30 ). I have had absolutely no issues whatsoever.

Mind you i have used other brands but have stuck to Milemaster. @ N7,500 for 5 qts it makes sense especially in this regime of change!

Mobil1 advance full synthetic 5w30

What make of car do you use?

dino2006:


What make of car do you use?

Toyota Camry 2000 model. Performance is great now. Used quartz 9000 before mobil 1

stelaar:
Mobil 1 5w 30 (imported) cost about 12k

I would be switching to the Nigerian produced 5w30 to support the naira in my next scheduled maintenance

PS: Nigeria Mobil formerly restricted customers to 20 w50 and 0 w40 but I guess they have realised customers clamour for other variants. The Nigeria mobile 5 w30 comes with a green cap on the gallon.

How much does the Nigerian produced Mobil cost per litre?

Dear All please read and get enlightened http://themotoroilevaluator.com/members-blog/which-engine-oil-is-the-perfect-motor-oil/#axzz49YWwNdQA

dino2006:

I doubt if the 5w-30 sold by Mobil petrol stations is manufactured / blended in Nigeria. Unless that price has changed it costs btw N7800 - 8000 for 4 litres in Lagos.

Yea it's what most of the Mobil stations sell. It has a green cap, compared to the ash cap of the imported variant.

Castrol Lubricant is very good, talking in terms of quality, price friendly, far better than other brands in attending to any car issue/ manufacturer's specification, global recognition, Technology, Research which evolves on a daily basis. Castrol Engine Oil is not just any lubricant...it is Liquid engineering extended to your car at every contact. Castrol Rocks See attached.

My Brother, so sorry about that. It just happened this morning and it has been rectified by Etisalat this afternoon. Please call back or flash and l'll call immediately. My apologies

Use to use Mobile one 5w-30 but tough times for me to use Shell which is actually recommended for my Hyundai.

I live in the United States where we have access to so many choices.
I have used the shell Mobil one and Walmart brand. As long as they meet some minimum requirements they are fine. Read the label and compare it to the lower cost brand. They tend to meet the same specifications.
Who you buy comes down to finance and personal preference.

How is the performance so far? Before you compare, let us know the previous type of oil you have been using. That would really be insightful.

And that is a 4 Litre pack

The dollar is no longer N197.

Sellers of full synthetic 5w-20 / 5w-30 oils costing N16,000 or more for 5 qts / litres will end up closing shop and /or losing to synthetic blends costing N8,000 or less from Milemaster, Coastal, Hardex, etc. Its already happening on e-commerce sites. Rymco, Northsea, and Morgas are gone.

Don't get me wrong. Full synthetics are good but the reality is that my salary has not been increased. If a full synthetic oil costs twice as much as a synthetic blend I would want it to also last twice the distance of the synthetic blend for me to continue to afford it. Sadly that is not the case especially with synthetic blends these days lasting between 6000 and 7000kms.

Now people are going to be asking themselves if it makes sense to spend more on full synthetic especially in cases were full synthetics are not specifically recommended by the car manufacturer and that covers a huge percentage of Toyotas, Hondas, Nissans, Kias, Hyundais, Fords, Lexus, Infiniti, Acuras, etc manufactured before 2014.

Are Milemaster, Coastal, Hardex and co really synthetic?

Contact autologic @ 08061166316 for delivery.

The engine performance when you use 20W-50 is distinctly different. I could not find 5W-30 two months ago when I did servicing. I would revert to it next time, no matter how long it takes me to find it or the cost. I value my engine more.
