No1 uses Shell?
I am using it thou.
So far so good, as having to change EO every 8k and not a hard-core driver.

Unless your is a performance car, if not think most EO suit B&B cars as long as you do your EO change regularly.

Was using TGMO on the Altis for the first few years and thereafter, various EO in this sequence (~10K OCI):
1. TGMO
2. Mobil 1 Gold
3. SHU
4. X Rev
5. TRD (Wakos)
6. TRD (Motul)

I'll rate them in top to bottom order:
1. TRD (Motul)
2. Mobil 1 Gold
3/4. X Rev / TGMO
5/6. TRD (Wakos) / SHU

Trying PU or GC next.

Haven't tried that much oil before, but IMO most grade 40 oil can last more than 10k (I tried fk massimo, hks super NA, Mobil, motul h tech, Castrol edge and can't remember what else Liao. ) all still smooth by time of next service. For grade 30, Mobil can last 10k, ows 8k rough liao
