wandeay: No. Your car doesn't REQUIRE synthetic. Just get regular 5w30 |

jidobaba:yes, I use the MRS 5W40 in my 05 and 06 Toyota Corolla |
Re: What Type Of Engine Oil Do You Use In Your Car And How Much Is It? by jidobaba(m): 4:13am On Jun 02, 2020 |
radautoworks:Thanks. I have only used Mobil 1/5w30 as that is what is written on the cap. Had to drain and refill prematurely so I want a much cheaper option even if another oil grade. High mileage engine. If the engine will take, I want to change to a local oil. @nurey, is the MRS oil full synthetic ? Also what is this sleeve filter that you use? |

jidobaba:as long as you are using 5w30 you'll be fine. Conventional is way cheaper than synthetic This is only $27.89 http://weblink.carquest.com/acl/?mfgName=CQO&partNumber=CQ620-5QT |

Hi radautoworks, you are doing well. Please, what engine oil will you recommend for a Hyundai Accent O8 model with 1.6ltr engine? What transmission fluid as well? I was thinking Mobil SAE-30 PS: my money go soon complete so I’ll drive down to your shop and greet you with malt while they work on my car. The temperature light keeps showing on the odometer. Nothing overheats for now though 1 Like |

jidobaba: The MRS is full synthetic I have been using it for 7years plus on several vehicles and no complaint. I don't understand sleeve filter is it a brand of oil filter or what? But when changing engine oil, you are required to replace the oil filter too. |

dgitrader: That is not the Nigerian Mobil, Nigerian own has green cover, this one is black and seems to come from new-zealand. It is semi synthetic and I have never used it before. cc sooperrescue 1 Like |
Re: What Type Of Engine Oil Do You Use In Your Car And How Much Is It? by dgitrader(m): 11:15am On Jun 02, 2020 |
nurey: Your are right it's black cover, but it's really Nigeria produced and I think it's less than a year in the market, the promo was last year and it still sells for about 5,400. I used it twice now on Naija used 2009 accord i4, and there was remarkable improvement in engine silence and fuel economy. The engine exhaust now releases steams upon morning startup. The previous owner was using 20w-40. I took the risk and still observing if any implications.
