Thx for the update khlee! Too bad couldnt wait til the 15th...had alr serviced (KS) yesterday...

some info for those yet to do 10k service..

Petronas Syntium 3000 5w30 4L + 1L - rm209 + rm58 (took back the remaining oil)
oil filter - rm64
washer drain plug - rm5
radiator coolant (optional), total of 4L to flush - rm 35.7/2L
labor to change coolant - rm35

Car does feel lighter and smoother a little...but no changes to FC...yet...perhaps another tank to see the diff

No worry...Sharing what I know from my contact.

BTW, just to clarify the point that this DOST NOT mean GeotAuto will automatically use this new Total Quartz INEO ECS engine for 308. I heard they are still using both Quartz9000 5W30 and 5W40.

My suggestion for those who really interested to use this proven and recommended oil is to buy it from the contact I have given and then service your 308 at KS.

Again, this is just my sharing information. The final decision is yours to make.

Cheers//KH

I go to a Tayar shop, they got 5w30 oil for BMW or Menz Bent. TOP NM oil.
Forget the name, start with T, great colour Tin. From USA.

For the geoauto talk cock case,I just test on him, dont want to mention again,forget it.

A Syntium specifically for BMWs

Petronas Dagangan today commemorated its partnership with Sapura Auto, a BMW authorised dealer, in a symbolic signing ceremony held at the latter's 3S (sales, services and spare parts) centre here in Jalan Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur.

Under the partnership, Petronas Dagangan will be supplying Sapura Auto with its high-performance, fully-synthetic engine oil, the Syntium 3000 LL, that has been exclusively developed by Petronas for BMW engines.

Signing on behalf of the two companies were Sapura Auto CEO Mohamad Mohar Ibrahim and Petronas Dagangan managing director/CEO Ibrahim Marsidi.

"As the largest petroleum products marketer in the country, we are committed to providing only the best quality products and services to the consumers,� said Ibrahim.

The Syntium 3000 LL is a BMW Longlife-01 (LL-01) approved oil, and the SAE 5W-30 multigrade meets ACEA A3/B3/B4 specifications. Features of the Syntium 3000 LL include exceptional thermal and oxidation stability as well as excellent engine cleanliness. The oil will not be retailed in the market, but is only available as a service fill.

With the Syntium 3000 LL, discerning BMW owners can experience for themselves an ultra-smooth engine performance on demand, Ibrahim added.

Why are we charged a bomb for a simple oil filter? Things that we have to change periodically should be made very cheap isn't it? http://www.cbccarspa...wl7413-27-p.asp
It only cost 5 quid in Birmingham so anything more than RM35 sold in m'sia is considered very expensive.

I was surfing around & found this site http://www.opieoils....my-vehicle.aspx
where they recommend certain engine oil for cars. Total is not one of the products in this web site, but Motul is.

it seems the more expensive Signature Series 0W-30 100% Synthetic Motor Oil (SSO)
http://www.amsoil.co...efront/sso.aspx
dares to put up an a 4-ball wear test as tested by independant labs. Mobil1 seems to be their target!

SSO is one of the best. Been using this for the past years and very confident with it.. Motul is not bad as well. ..

TOTAL QUARTZ INEO ECS is an anti-pollution engine oil.

Its just another low SAPS oil. Most top brand oils are already low SAPS. I think current regulation for low Sulfated Ash is 1%wt and below.
