I have changed from Shell Helix Plus to Shell Helix Ultra. Only difference is when the engine is "cold" i find using Ultra is smoother, quieter & "less sticky". But once warm-up is all the same for both oil. I come to know that Ultra is 5W/40 compared to Plus with 15W/50; which means is easier to flow at lower temperature. But if you want best results/protection go for Petronas Syntium 5000 at 0W/40. If you don't mind warm up your engine for 1 or 2 mins every morning, I think using 5W/40 or 15W/50 oil is not an issue. I warm up at least 1 min every morning (lesser now with 5W/40). Hi J41,

I am open to accept any better fuel so lets be profesional (don't be biase); please add in if you have your own track record. This is for everyone's good, right. TEST DETAIL: Timeline: From 16 September till 02 November Engine Milage: 4141km till 5365km Fuel: Shell Super (green) Engine Oil: Shell Helix Plus (Semi-syntethic) Driving condition: Town area (JOHOR BAHRU) with 30-45min traffic jam per day Top Speed: 90km/h (hardly) Occupants: 2 person; total weight: 123kg Car Model: BLM M-line Transmision: Manual (5-speed) Tire F&R : 185mm (stock alloy rim) Pressure F/R : 210kpa/190kpa RESULTS: Total distance travel (city) = 1224 km Total fuel (shell green) cosume = 91.45 litres km per liter = 13.38 km/l --Currently, I'm running another test with change in variables: Fuel: Shell V-Power (Red/Blue) Engine oil: Shell Helix Ultra (Fully Syntethic) Tire Pressure F/R: 230kpa/210kpa I will post you the details once available...maybe in January. In mid January I will be driving from Johor to Kedah (for Chinese New Year) & planning to track the highway performance. Hi All, lets try to put figures into the discussion.

Buat masa ini, saya hanya isi minyak Shell dan Petronas saja for my BLM. yang lain-lain tak pernah coz rasa dua2 ni better than yang lain(walaupun semua minyak sama je sebenarnya kat Malaysia ni). Untuk lebih kilometer, prefer Shell, tapi performance Petronas is better. nak lagi ok, guna v power la.. hehe. pada pandangan saya..
