    "marketing".
    if sedans and hatchbacks were vastly more popular than SUVs, i am confident the etiketa would have run, "for sedan and hatchback engines..."
    and if warming up the engine in the garage were the standard practice, it would probably run, "best for warming up the engine in the garage..."
    the change in etiketa lyrics cost them practically nothing.
    heh heh heh.

    i use cheap ordinary mineral oil, replacing it regularly every 5000 km.

    Comparing regular mineral oil vs Amsoil signature series on my 2gd hilux. Ramdam na mas tahimik at less vibration ng makina at mid rpm acceleration. Gastos ng mas malaki pero worth it naman siguro because I can change my oil 7,000 km to 10, 000km reading on Amsoil sig series compared to mineral na need palitan every 5, 000km.

    Plus yung oras gugulon mo.
    Delo gold 15w30
    230pesos/liter= 1,840pesos for 8 liters
    Labor
    Change oil every 5, 000
    1840x2=3680
    Labor 600 x2 =1200
    Total: 4880pesos

    Amsoil signature series
    700pesos/liter= 5,600pesos for 8 liters
    Labor 600
    Change oil every 10, 000km
    Total: 6,200


    Halos 1500 pesos lang difference sa isang change oil fully synthetic vs mineral oil dalawang balik sa mekaniko at 10,000 km reading. Mag fully synthetic nalang ako pasok pa sa required oil ng 2gd engine plus mas fuel efficient pa makina on fully synthetic.

    Mas magandang 5000km to 8000km max ang oil change. Full Synthetic 10000km is bad practice. Also mukhang mas maganda Shell LD5 oil kaysa delo around P300 naka API CK.

    Anyone ever used the new brands on the market with advertised "for extended drain intervals" like K&N Select? Nakasulat sa box good for 20,000 miles or 32,000km, but the filtration efficiency is not really mentioned anywhere.

    I prefer good filtration over extended drain filters--maybe except when its a Fram Ultra (I use a Fram Ultra XG3614 on my fortuner for 30,000km before changing the filter coupled with 10k oil changes).

    I also run Isuzu's genuine filter (8981650710) on a D-max for 20,000km with 10k oil changes. 20k oil filter changes are listed in the manual so I followed it without ill effects, cut open my oil filters too and found nothing abnormal.

    Remember oil filters get more efficient over time. Sayang sa pera yung 5k oil filter changes kung malinis makina mo. Cut open your oil filters to help make your decision. I have an oil filter cutter for this hehe.

    Depends on the driving factors. If its everyday 3 hour metro manila traffic sure. But If its mixed driving with some highway miles in it then there's nothing wrong with going 10k or even 15k if you're using a quality full synthetic like amsoil/zic etc. Also if your vehicle has a bigger sump (like 7liters for your usual diesel SUV/trucks) then it can easily go farther than 10k, sobrang conservative lang ng estimate ng 10k oil change interval dito sa pinas since it already includes the traffic/severe driving factor in it--otherwise we would be following the euro oil change intervals which is 20k or 2 years.

    Ako nga, I am still following the 6 mos interval sa CASA.
    8 mos nga ako bumisita for the PMS kahit less than 3k lang tinakbo.
    Needed dahil warranty pa.
