Which type of engine oil should we use for every 10000km
« on: July 16, 2009, 12:23:09 PM »
Hi all,

Just want to know if anyone can share what type of engine should we use for every 10km?

10000km - 20000km: 5w30
20000km - 30000km: 5w30
30000km - 40000km:?
40000km - 50000km:?
so on and so forth...

It might not be everyone preference, but at least we are aware that what grade of EO we should avoid.

Thanks.
