hmmm yar i had about 3 liters of total quartz 9000 5w-30 left over.. i replenished the remaining 0.25liters from this oil..

its ok to mix another oil as I think quartz 9000 is also fully synthetic....next time buy 1 liter pack for backup or u can use this remaining quartz 9000 for another add-up on next oil service

I use Mobil Super 2000 x2 10w40 semi synthetic oil in my corolla 2009 1.3L, what would be the recommended change interval for it.
Secondly I use Shell HX7 5w30 in my City 2012, what would be the change interval for that, keeping in mind that the City has a lot of highway driving.

yep for Pakistan environment 7-8000km or check oil dipstick of oil viscosity

So, for environment of karachi, is anything below 20/50 acceptable? If I talk about my liana driven over 100k km on cng, what do u suggest?

[Maxud1]

anybody using imported oils like mobil 1 or liqui moly how'd they compare it with local brands like shell,caltex and Pso

yes below 20w50 like 10w40 is also fine for ur liana but this threads is about fully synthetic oil the one u r using is 20w50 is mineral oil change interval is 5000km

m using liqui moly 5w40 synthoil fully synthetic in my markx cant tell the difference coz m using it for last 4 years....its hard to find in 1 liter only available in 4 liter n also quite exp compare to local brand.....shell ultra 5w40 oil is imported but packing done locally also caltex gold pack fully synthetic is imported but cheaper than liqui moly n mobil 1

semi synthetic can go upto 6000km but always check ur oil dipstick if theres viscosity at 5000km+.....for honda city 5000km is change interval

whats wrong with it being packed in Pakistan - as long as it carries a SHELL brand, UPC and also is warranted by shell who are locally in Pakistan then whats wrong?

so the conclusion should be its okay to stick with local brands as far as fully synthetic oils are concerned all the local brands are more or less the same in terms of quality. and i think one should also check the Pso's quality for synthetic oils cuz i got to the point that the majority of people haven't even tried pso's oil and they are blaming Pso for providing low quality

Sir actually Maxud was saying that in new cars pick up is good and Toyota said they pour perhaps Petron.
I said Petron is actually 20w-50. And using thicker oil in new cars will increases the pickup. Though the fuel consumption will be little higher too.
And hence I put little light according to my experience.
I actually did not ask him to use 20w-50 for new car. But infact this is what Toyota is already doing. Hope clear.

it doesn't make sense wen u used thicker oil give ur car better pick-up...in fact lighter oil give good pick up with gud fuel consumption....anyhow Toyota Indus stopped 20w50 for Altis 1.6 two years back n they were offering petron 5w30 fully synthetic but I wanted different brand so I switched to shell ultra fully synthetic...check the petron oil range below

Toyota still pours 20w50 when it gets the chance. Friend's car was a subject to that.
Use the japanese toyota oil available easily in the market. That one is better

Yes but normally logon ko itna pata bhi nae hota cheezun ka nd na he unki jaan pehchaan hoti hai.

They just give their cars to toyota k "company ko di hai, sahi he kaam krenge"
I have had bad experience with toyota in karachi.

Nd Company maintained cars men sub se zada dandi maarte hain ye log

you are absolutely right .. toyota dealerships rip people off .. like seriously minimum two times expensive than the local market and the oil that they give via petron SL not SN similarly for diesel the scenario is even worst they provide Dezon which is CF like seriously one's gonna pour the CF grade oil in new turbo charged diesel engines atleast it should've been CH grade for diesels..
