Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by dru23(m): 12:16am On Nov 28, 2023
ReformerD:
"Good day! My Kia Optima's recommended oil type is 5w-30, and I've been using Mobil 1. However, after rebuilding the engine, my mechanic suggests switching to Visco 2000 due to Nigeria's temperatures. He mentioned that the Mobil 1 oil is too light in texture. Should I stick to Mobil 1 5w-30, or is it advisable to follow his recommendation and switch to Visco oil?"


This is a double edge sword here.. Most engine that are rebuilt will never last more than 6months to 1yr. In most cases a mechanic will advice you to get a tokunbo engine.... But if he does a rebuilt he can only guarantee you 6months... Have had bad experience with so call good mechanics..........

There is no such thing as oil for Nigerian weather etc .. Very unfortunate we have more unprofessional mechanics than professional ones.. I always advice people to follow owners manual at all times..

Even if you are going to deviate from owvners manual there should not be too much of a gap from the viscosity of the oil.. E.g. owners manuals says use 5w20 , but you have no access to 5w20.. Than I will use 5w30 .. Manuals says use 0w20 , but I have access to 0w30 , you can see that the gap is not too bad.. But this only advisable in a year around hot climate weather.. Regardless of weather conditions 20w50 is too thick for any engine .. You will end up gradually killing your engine and oil pump

So back to your matter like Shakespeare " to do or not to do .Thats the question" it is basically up to you

Car Talk / ................mobil 1 Oil Fake Vs Mobil 1 Original.......... by dru23(m): 10:25am On Nov 26, 2023
As we enter Xmas festival period... This is the period that sales are very high for us ........

We want members of public to beware of the oil they are buying.... I have taken time to go around and see for myself .

During my findings I noticed few difference between fake Mobil 1 oil and original ....

And also the currant cost of Mobil 1 oil at Mobil station .. The ones sold at Mobil 1 station is not USA brand and it sells at 51,500....


1. The original Mobil 1 will let you scan the barcode. While the fake you can't scan it .

2. The original Mobil 1 has a manufacture date on the back (pic1) below .. While the fake does not have

3. If you pay close attention. The original Mobil 1 has a plastered Mobil 1 logo (pic2) .The little scratch I made was me trying to peal off the front off ..... The fake is copied on the keg ..

If all fails just download free scantrust q code from Google . scan the barcode (pic3) . once you scan it will take you to Mobil 1 website and tells you the specific of the oil weight e.g 5w-20 , 5w40, 5w30 etc

I could go on and on about how to differentiate fake oil from original . But there is no need for that

Please, I got a tokunbo Honda Pilot 2011 Model, I want to change the Engine oil on the Cover it's written 5W-20 but I can't find the oil type .....house if I change it with Mobile1 5W-30 will it affect the engine performance?


5w30 is ok , 100% better than using 20w50.... To avoid stories that touch.. Avoid 20w50 at all cost.......

No matter how u do am. When changing trasmission fluid , please and please use the recommended transmission fluid.. Failure to do so will end in absolute tears.......

Due to the unstable naira and high cost of purchasing dollar. Na fake engine oil and substandard parts full market...

Don't be penny wise and pound foolish

Will stick with pms for long. Once there is demand..price go rise up.then by then would be too late to reverse. If it ain't direct from factory,r.i.p in advance.

100% agreed with the bolded

This is the type of Angrigowt I like.. This is what happens when you obey your psychiatric doctors and take your medications daily not skipping it , but taking it daily with water and not with dog pee ...

Ur eyes will be clearer and your thinking will be balance. And appropriate to the members of the public that are listening to ur advice.....

I have never for once will encourage such conversions to CNG... It is a disaster waiting to happen and R.I.P in advance especially if it is not factory fitted... I was never a fan of anything that is not factory fitted

Thank you very much I really appreciate all the effort. It is Tokunbo, I will switch to 5W30 in the next service

Imports from the USA.......38k each .......keep in mind oil is cheap than buying new engine.....


Also keep in mind when using the right viscosity of oil. You will save on fuel coz the oil pump is not over working engine to pump oil to all the moving parts....

When using thicker oil like 20w50 the oil pump is working harder to pump oil to the moving parts, and in the process burning more fuel and damaging oil pump in the long run...
