That is exactly my point. Do you have an Auto Workshop?

This will help you if you have one. From the images above, you can see that DuraMax Motor Oil works for almost all Car engines.

let me get my biro and paper ready o


oga sooperrescue will come and school is here very soon

sooperrescue:
My people, thanks for inviting me. OP, according to the American petroleum quality institute, they have certified duramax 5w30 synthetic blend as meeting the standard and not the full synthetic. We have discussed this oil issue with them in my office and in the end, we agreed that they should send me the details of the oil. Google the US market about the oil, there's a lot of sad tales about the oil. We bring any oil as long as it is 5w30 but the certification is not there. Duramax synthetic blend meets the standard it claims to satisfy and a lot of folks in the US are running away from the oil.

USPlaceofAutos:


Each of these Engine oils have their own standards. Synthetic blends have its own standard while full synthetic does too. It is preposterous to say that the synthetic blend meets the standards but its full synthetic doesn't. The question becomes they know it doesn't meet the standard and it is still being produced.

Can you please show us proof of your claims showing that APQI (American Petroleum Quality Institute) certified the synthetic blend and not the full synthetic as meeting the standard.

We have the seal of APQI on all our products as seen below.



America with strict standard measures will not allow a product that does not meet certain standards to be produced, not to talk of exporting. Sir i guess you may have been misinformed or know nothing about what you are talking about.

Like i said, please show us proof of your claims showing that APQI (American Petroleum Quality Institute) certified the synthetic blend and not the full synthetic as meeting the standard.

You googled and saw some probably bad reviews and you concluded with the word "alot". I can imagine the meeting you claim you had with them in your office. Did they come? Lol... Just asking

sooperrescue:

Kemi spoke to me from your office years back and promised to send me the spec sheets of the synthetic oil. There's a very fair guy with glasses who came with another guy and they were marketing the oil. I agreed with the atf but for the 5w30, we disagreed based on bobistheoilguy reports and even though Reilly is a supporter of apqi, they approved the blend but we never saw the approval for the full synthetic. In an era of advanced full synthetic, who is bothered with full synthetic?

bravolad:


Interesting discussions. Can we expand the discussion to include the Duramax 0w20?

Indeed, I used this spec of engine oil for the last service of my car & sincerely, my engine runs smooth, quiet & I have got better mpg so far compared with what I got in the past.

Can we have the data sheet? I have read good USA reviews of this particular spec. There are also established workshops in Nigeria who have used Duramax for years & have attested to it's quality provided the source is genuine.

Interesting discussion. For good four years now have used this brand of engine oil, never for once has it dissapointed. Have used the transmission fluid on a wide range of vehicles e.g Honda, Toyota, Nissan, ford, chyrsler, Lexus and many more. It's one thing to know what you want in a product it's another thing to just follow the "them say". So many test have been carried out by me on this engine oil. It does what it's expected of and has never dissapointed. Recently installed a Lexus es350 2008 transmission which comes with U660E transmission (6spd). Duramax transmission fluid was what I used and it never dissapointed. My next transmission oil change is on a Toyota Venza 2010 and I would be using it as well. Don't be surprised the so-called Toyota WS and dw1 sold in naija are substandard. Use them at your own peril

sooperrescue:

Good to hear that it worked out for you but like you stated for the atf, you said that you used it on Ford gear. Which of the Ford? It does not work on Ford requiring mercon sp and lv. And like I stated for which you just confirmed, it might be suitable for Toyota cars. But have you tried it on the real cars?

mayor2013:


Have used on chrysler 300c with the NAG1 transmission. I doubted it's compatibility on Honda before usage but since it met the spec of dw1 threw it in straight and it drank it all without errors

helpishere:

Ford vehicles is what he is asking for. Why can't the oil work on Sp,Lv Mercon? What about Mercedes 7 speed gear? Can it work on these cars?

mayor2013:


Worked on Ford Taurus. Never tried it on 7spd transmission but if it meets the specification why not if not. Why can't you try it rather than follow the " them say" just to get your own facts right

helpishere:

Sooperrescue asked a question about the ATF. Why can't the oil be used in all Ford vehicles that requires Sp,lv since it's a dexron 6 and it's current. All ATF made from the US always claim to work with the three American car companies in the transmission fluids but a dexron 6 that works on only Mercon V for Ford vehicles is to be wary of. Ford Taurus uses Mercon V. Even Oando dexron 111h claims to work with Mercon V. We don't have to follow the them say crowd, every practitioner must stand up to defend their customers cars. Is Duramax ATF dexron 6, for six speed vehicle? Compare it to Total mvlv. Any oil that claims to work on dw1 should be six speed. Dw1 are for 2010 cars rolled backwards to atfz1.

This a theoretical forum. Speak of only what you have tried not what you hear all say. Do you know the so-called mobil 1 every one calls upon doesn't suit all vehicle. A client of ours who uses mobil1 on his Honda Accord 2008 i4 complained about shorter oil change interval. 2months OCI limit is reached. Until I told him to change to duramax that stopped. Take a look at what the engine looks like in the inside with the use of duramax 5w20. 4 years now
