Oh ya... and don't need to hoard since the shops are closer by... but in return, the prices per quart are significantly higher.

Unless can get a good deal for bulk purchase. You are right, shops are mostly nearby .

always being using 5w40 leh

it seems like 5w30 is also certified for vw

somemore most of the time my EO hovers around 80+ degree (based on oil pan temp).

so can try try lo :s13:

if engine piang then too bad, search for new car. If bo piang, maybe renew COE :D
still no better car in my mind yet
Yup I drained the Mobil 1 0W40 and replace it with Mobil 1 5W30 and top it off with Capco MT-10 oil additive and I can immediately feel the difference in throttle response.

The car feels lighter and accelerates better and faster.

you promoting the oil additive is it?

another thread you post the same thing. dig up 2016 threads.

anyways oil additives , ask the shop show you approved lab tests .. if not it is snake oil..

lighter weight oil without additive , you should already feel like car is faster to accelerate because it is lighter weight oil.. but thicker oils tend to give better protection especially in older cars as metal will start to wear and tear over time

Stock is best.
