Hi all,

Does Petronas still sell 1L Syntium 1000 and 3000?
Most stations in Kuching do not sell them and those that carry them are very old stock 2006 packing.
Does it mean petronas stopped packing fully synthetics in 1L?

Old Engine Oil

I had my inspira serviced a few days ago at Proton SC. Their stock of Fully Synthetic oil had run out so I had to purchase the oil on my own.
I bought 5 packs of 1L Syntium 3000 5W-40. The problem is the oils were packed in 2005.
Will that cause a problem. I have searched online, there are so many contradicting comments, some say the oils will last indefinitely if they are still sealed.
Some say otherwise... What do you guys think.

Well after the oil change, engine seems to run smoother. But I think I'm losing some pick-up. Previous oil used was Syntium 800 (semi-syn) 10W-40.
