but to change to shogun - need to pay ... but HOW much to top up and what are the type available (w30, w40, etc etc)

how to see EO rating??

normally its 5w40 or 0w40  or just 0w30 )?>> the 1st 2 digits (5w or 0w) is what?? last 2 digit is for the viscosity (thick or thin - the bigger the number , the thick)
From the sticky thread,

5w40 is for good maintenance but how will it affect FC (improve or decrease FC)?
0w40 is for good FC but how good is it for maintenance?
0w30 is for performance but does it mean low FC....?

clarence:
In 0W40 for example, ignor eth first number as it is applicable only for winter climate.

With the hot and humid weather in S'pore and unforgiving stop and go city traffic conditions, an oil rating of 40 gives optimium protection for current batches of Latio on S'pore roads which are all less than 4 yr old.

So for my case, under the NPMP,  if they ask me to change to fully synthetic oil>> do i still need to pay for their inhouse brand - Shogun and Fastflo ???

Bro, for ur case, on ur 3rd 10K servicing which is free, recommend u to top-up for Fully-Syn Oil. U nd to pay additional for changing the normal free Mineral Oil under ur 3rd servicing package. If u intend to change to in-house Fully Syn oil, recommend u to use their Fastflo oil. Don't use Shogun (also their in-house oil which is more expensive), where I have experienced drop in mileage (fr ~12km/L to ~10km/L, and also lack of power). U may search our past forum discussion on this Shogun n Fastflo performance, few of us here have tried and it was not good on feedback.

After u hv top-up for Fully Syn oil at the 3rd servicing, ur free NPMP program will follow at 20K, 30K, 40K and 50K, which all of them they will use in-house Fastflo fully-syn oil which is okay. Just rem to insist on Fastflo during all these servicing, not Shogun. :)

Of cos the other choice u hv is to use the free normal mineral oil at 10K servicing, but then ur continuing NPMP will be "odd" at 15K, 25K, 35K and 45K.

Hope u get a clearer picture on the above. Cheers.
