@ nurey
Is it that the hardex gold viscosity is too thin/light and dries up even before the next oil change? Or does it also have any side effects on the engine when used?

Seems this brand does not have good customer reviews.

Thanks.

the oil is very good. used the oil for my Toyota Corolla 2005 for like 3yrs with amazing fuel economy. Am currently using Camry 2010. i just start using it too, after using Mobil 1 5w 20 just once in the car
Re: How Good Is Hardex Engine Oil? by fineboynl(m): 11:28am On May 24, 2024
I downgraded from mobil 2000 to mobil 1000.

What I observed is slight reduction of fuel economy.

Tinubu just finished Nigeria while custom is just doing anyhow increasing tariffs for oil.

I have been using 5w20 fully synthetic for car (2014 Rolla) since 2020. It's been great so far there is nothing like drying that is an absolute fallacy.
