Dear i am using castrol magnatec 10w-40 which run very well upto 4500km after that it trun into dark yellowish.

But some people say that, it is not original oil, Is it so??

While i checked its fully seal pack and its seal is very strong. it required great force to tore the seal and made in uae is printed on the bottle.

While i also used Zic A 10w 40 which trun into dark yellowish after 2700 kilometers and qulaity is low then magnatec.

Castrol Magnetic is a great oil, if you find the original one.

What do yo mean by original one??????

onlyfaith (onlyfaith) 2011-07-22 10:56:11 +0500 #5

meaning there are counterfeit brands in the market by the name of castrol.

My personal experience is that it is much better than other oils available in the market. (If you are getting the original one)
If it is not original than chances are that it may become black at 2~3k kms.

In Islamabad you can get it from Badar Autos who are authorized resellers of Castrol. You can contact them at 051-2202404 or 0333-5050610.

Zic A+ is synthetic formula oil where as Castrol magnetic is mineral oil, however the performance of this oil amazes you. much better than Zic A+..

You can find it from Gawalmandi Rawalpindi , Bismillah oil Agency.

@ OP if you are using it till 4500 KM then obviously its not fake..

onlyfaith (onlyfaith) 2011-08-11 07:25:43 +0500 #11

although it a v good oil, there is a confusion in my mind whether this company operating in Pakistan is Dead or not, I havent heard from them here in Pakistan since they lost their collaboration with PSO..

some fellow pwheeler having info abt this.
