kayzhen911, B33mEr, yes I have stopped using Bardahl. I found Castrol Edge Sport 0-40 (TESCO RM139) is very good so far no drop 3500km on my N42B20 engine.

bro, i've a supporter of Bardahl for years.
its not a bad oil but was told American classification of "synthetic" is quite dubious.
normally only grade III oil can be considered synthetic but American ones classify their grade II as synthetic.
not only that, Bardahl literage is not 4 litres.
its slightly less than 3.9
it goes by fluid ounces i think.
all in all, im ditching it for good.
normally i'd go for Ravenol which is also not cheap.
230 for 4 litres.
if this round my car dun makan minyak, im going to stay with Voltronic.
everybody says, even me,.....
how can an engine lubricant give u more torque and improve responsiveness?
till now i dun believe it but its true.
u guys can change once to test it out.
if it does not show, ditch it.
no harm
its still a good lub.
all the best.
if anyone tries it out, pls gimme a pm.
i'd love to know if it works with other cars and im not just "syok sendiri sahaja"....
lol....

Bro ... Synthetic classification is Group III by American standards not group II. So Bardhal is a group III base oil. Europeans however grade group IV and V as fully synthetics only.

Americans like to use quarts which is equivalent to 0.95 litre according to uncle google but since it 's being bottled by C&C i would believe that 4 litre would be exactly that a 4 litre oil though i may be wrong.

I know about Voltronic and my mech also recommends it but it's expensive for my budget so didn't try lah lol
