First he claimed that there is no Mobil 1 engine oil for Nissan Honda and Toyota and I brought his attention to it. Mobil xhp is not obsolete, it's API SN for modern cars and it is the 3rd choice for a Toyota even for a 2013 Corolla. The Op is an investor and not an oil enthusiast. And should be able to give people choices. I'm not a trader and I don't sell oil. We have a problem about the oils in the country and for people to bring oils from the US and no one is asking for the proofs of the source because on Amazon, the price is higher than the price he is selling his product. Dru, thanks for your explanation. I have been following your posts for years. You have argued against a lot of skeptical people because you are sure of your source of oil. Those guys who have nothing to say or defend, good morning

Mobil xhp 20w50 for modern engine? So you telling me in this age and time modern cars are using 20w50 oil.... Again according to my knowledge there is no Mobil 1 specifically made for Nissan and Toyota..

0w20 Mobil 1 meets Nissan and Toyota specification if the cars demands for it ....And just like some Mobil 1 0w40 does not meet some European cars specification..

You did not bring my attention to anything. You are just slow and cannot comprehend. Even Dru and others have tried explaining. The oil you posted isnt meant for for nissan and toyotas only. Quit being so dumb and read up. I have known about motor oils before you had your first car, that is if you have ever owned one. We have also repeated that you can verify source with serial number on the gallons. Are you so dense that you cannot understand all this?

Because amazon is the only source of oil?? You are really ignorant o. Common 18k oil, you cannot afford. Is it when we list the price for 25K that you will be able to buy it? Dru imports oils too and is selling for 17k. Is his own Fake too? People who cannot afford the best things always try to justify their poor choices in life. Tell us the car you use and the oil you buy, lets start from there.

20w50 for a 2013 corolla from a supposed oil expert. When you are ignorant about a subject, ask questions. Do not attempt to be knowledgeable about what you know nothing about. Oil is not your fort, stick to what you understand. You do not even know what viscosity means and you wont even read up smiley

Nairaland has given idiots who would normally not have anything to say the opportunity to spew trash. I nor blame u.

20w50 is specified in many Toyota manuals especially the South African spec. It is listed as the 3rd option and Mobil xhp has migrated from API SL to SN which was what made Cepsa a better choice than our local oil. A lot of people are using it and a lot of dealerships are using it too. Mobil 1 esp is suitable for Peugeot cars because it is stated there. But if Exxon Mobil states that the oil has fuel economy for Gm, Toyota, Nissan Honda, then it was created for these cars. Don't forget that Mobil is the one making Toyota branded engine oil.
Go to Jumia and you will find the oil there.

Bro it seems you have issue with one of the oil seller here. You are owing the guy money.. He gave you USA Castrol edge on credit ... For you to pay him back his money is now an issue . He carried soldier and police man to your shop, before u were able to part of the money .. Another famous nairalander intervene on the matter.. Kindly deal with the issue and stop trying to destroy someone else business......


Mobil xhp explanation is fraud again.. The best is for owners to read the oil cap of the engine.. Mobil xhp 20w50 is obsolete... And stop passing down wrong information to the public...... Below is an Rx350 that and the oil weight 0w20.... If the Toyota manual says 20w50 please point it out to us .....

And am aware of your age sir, kindly educate yourself and act your age ,instead of been a troll .... Thank you in advance sir

Lol .. Hyundai creta ? Of all cars lol .. At least you are been a good boy and following the owners manual.. And like I said owners should always read the manufacture manual at all times.....let's get to the bottom big boy ..

1. It is very funny and unfortunate that at of all the cars you could have use ,you decided to Hyundai creta, that vechicle is not even made for the USA market .. I think it is made for Russian or Indian market ...lol made for 3rd world market ...

2. We can agree to disagree that at least 75% of the cars in Nigeria are imported from the USA.. Depending on the cars , USA spec cars tends to have the best engine, quality control, emission regulations, and one of the best safety regulations in the world.. Now if your Hyundai creta was design for the USA market, it will have the best engine made possible to compete with others cars in the USA ..

3. Most of my customers are owners of USA spec cars .. So obviously the engine oil is formulated to meet those requirements and to pass USA motor regulations.. The oil valves of those USA made cars are designed to allow certain weight or grade of oil to flow easily, so meaning if your car requires 5w30 or other engine oil it should flow easily.. Now if the oil valves is not design to take 20w50. Due to the thickness of the oil ,it will not flow fast enough to lubricate all those parts at the beginning of start up. For example at start up my car will only need to warm up for a good give or take 1 minute. But 20w50 oil cause of the thickness will need a good give or take 5minutes to warm .. How many people will wait that long , and if you do wait you are burning unnecessary fuel ....

4. Some modern cars now using GDi engine I let you Google that lol ... so according to USA car regulations now, or tighter regulations .. Most modern cars will end up using 0w20 engine oil , it is abit thinner and will work for weather conditions... camry ,Corolla, Lexus from at least from 2012 are using only 0w20 .. And the 0w20 will work for weather including our Nigeria weather ....

5. 20w50 oil is an absolute engine oil in the USA , I don't see any USA cars that uses them ..maybe 1950 to late 1990 cars ,.. But USA emissions always changing so I doubt you see too many of 20w50 ,.And use 20w50 do exists in the USA ,likely for heavy equipment machines ,but for Auto especially modern cars, no car manufacturers uses them. .....

Conclusion.. My engine oil I do sell are focus mainly for USA spec car owners.. Car owners should always and always read owners manual at all times.. It will help you in the long run .. And most of you know that USA spec cars are the best in the world, it is build with high standard. Coparts auction is of Nigeria important customers... it speaks volume the importance of USA cars. Thank you all for taking the time to read my post ...

WHY THE OBSESSION WITH 20W50 ENGINE OIL?
Posted by Auto Surgeons on Mar 21, 2017

Virtually every mechanic recommends the use of 20w50.

20W-50 engine oil is no good for modern engines, regardless of the mileage. It is too thick, and flow to sensitive areas like multivalve cylinders, VVT / VANOS and any other timing adjusters that rely on instant oil pressure will be impeded.
Sludge.
Damaged timing chain tensioners.
Seized timing adjusters / variators.
Poor gas mileage.
Excessive engine wear.
Premature oil pump failure.
Premature turbo bearing failure.
Clogged PCV systems.
These are just some of the results of using 20W-50 engine oil in a modern engine, which has the viscosity of honey or tar.

Some are citing Nigeria's climate as a reason to run 20W-50 in a 2015 Toyota Camry. Rubbish! World climates are taken into account when engines are designed. What is so special about Nigeria? Texas, Arizona, Nevada are hotter than Nigeria will ever be, so is Dubai and tons of other countries. Run the correct oil for your engine, and stop assuming your Kazeem knows better than the engine manufacturers.

My old Audi S2 I sold with 543,000 miles on the odometer. When it was new and zero miles, the specified engine oil was 5W-30 or 10W-40. At 543,000 miles, the oil spec remained the same, I still used 5W-30.

Those saying their engines "knocked" after using the correct oil, that's nonsense. An engine that is on its last legs, with so much play in the crank main bearings, conrod bearings will run on any old rubbish.

Some unscrupulous dealers and mechanics will actually melt thick grease and fill the engine with the resultant heavy oil, to quieten a rattling and knocking engine, just to sell the car to an unsuspecting buyer. Of course this engine is dead, the moment you drain and replace the oil, it's the end. The destruction is nothing to do with using the correct engine, this was an engine that was already sounding like a bulldozer's diesel engine, that had the symptoms of crank and conrod Bering failure masked by introducing a thicker oil, which would eventually destroy even a healthy engine.

The average Nigerian prefers to accept 20W-50 oil as good for their engines, though deep down, some are aware it's wrong. It's easier to accept the cheaper rubbish than to shell out good money for the correct synthetic oil. These users are also inherently lazy, and couldn't really be bothered to search for the right oil, or import it if they can't find it locally or nationally.

Even the 0w40 for Benz is not extended performance, so why are you guys harping on the extended performance as the best thing on earth after Agege bread?


Well if you say helpishere and you are not the same .. The court of public opinion on nairaland can be the Judge of that... let's get down to business....

20w50 is not good for modern cars , I will keep saying time and time again.. Which modern cars uses 20w50 oil in their engine (apart from cars made in 3rd world countries) .. Pick a modern car engine and owners manual for us to see ...

You mention a lot of dealership uses 20w50 etc .. Just because they use it does not make it correct .. This dealership are cutting corners and they are aware that the average Nigerians are not educated enough to know the right thing to use .. The cost of Mobil xhp is 5k naira compare it to the cost of using the correct oil of 12k naira ...why wouldn't dealership cut corners and use the cheap oil ...

Most knowledgeable car dealer on nairaland that know better will service the car they want to sell with 20w50. This is a well know practice among car dealers whether big or small.. Most know better that using 20w50 is not the rite oil to use .. They want to cut cost and at the sametime the customers are not educated enough to read the owners manual of the car .. So they basically go with the crowd..

I have a client in Warri that I supply imported oil to .. The client stated 20w50 sells faster than the imported oil .. It is cheaper and car owners don't care .. The client was forced to add 20w50 to their stock .. The imported oil are for clients that know what they want .. 20w50 is a very cheap oil , nigerians want cheap things, pennywise and pound foolish mentality .....This is why engine parts is a booming business in Lagos.....

I am not an advocate for 20w50. I used it on my range rover and it destroyed my car when I was working with Oando.

Helpishere, please pay me my money.. if Mobil is not coming to your workshop, total is contacting you from America or Oando is begging you to use their oil.. in all this bragging, there is nothing big about you.. transfer my money to me and let’s stop this nonsense..

You can continue to use 20w50 or whatever suits you... You always assume you know stuff on nairaland, in real life, people who know you know that it is empty chest beating..

Helpishere/Sooperrescue, pay me my money.. People who want the best will buy the best.. It doesn’t have to be you

Dru, yes i am owing the oil guy money for his oil and not for food. It is business and it is not what I should be ashamed of. I am not helpishere and I have never bought Mobil I from him. He was asked a question and he couldn’t answer the question. I have stopped commenting about oil on nairaland because whatever I say is not the final authority as the pockets of the owners of the cars and their mechanics determine the oil to use. Mobil xhp is not obsolete. As API Sl, it was still good and a lot of dealerships uses 20w50 on modern cars and it is always on the list of recommended oils. I know of someone who is silently selling his Royal purple engine oil and he is not making a single noise, and you know that royal purple is higher in all indices than castrol and Mobil. Are all your Uber taxis US specs? Yesterday I bought Mobil 1 0w40 USA spec , except for Gazzuzz that sells varieties, you guys sell your spec. There are many Toyotas that recommends 20w50 even the recent ones . When you talk about US specs, which of the US specs that are still using regular unleaded fuel? I have been in contact with a Mobil executive here in Nigeria and the information about your source of the USA oil is what I will not talk about here. I used to use syngard and now I’m using Addinol. The Germans came to my workshop to introduce their oil to me. Have you seen me talk about it on the forum? I advise a lot of people to use Total ATF mvlv. Do you think Total is paying me?

What question did you ask that hasn’t been answered? That you posted 0w20 and claimed it is what all Toyotas should use? In an attempt to try to discredit me, you made a fool of yourself..

Old man, act your age, stop being a troll and pay me my money.. I did not import motor oils to use as giveaway for you..

Helpishere is a mechanic too, he is into rescue and recovery, he owns a workshop at agege road just like Sooperrescue, he needs a car technician too. Everyone should please look at his old posts.

Stop trying hard to fool people, you are only making things harder for yourself.. At your age, you had to stoop sooo low to try to discredit me On my thread because I asked for my money.

As long as you keep saying rubbish here, I will keep going at you.

Extended performance will last longer on an engine than regular Mobil oil.. You do not know more than Mobil USA or car manufacturers that says the oil is guaranteed for 15,000 miles.. there is no Toyota or Nissan manual that says annual protection Mobil oil is what Toyotas and nissans need...

Quit making a fool of yourself in an attempt to defend what you wrote as helpishere..

You sit in your workshop and determine which oils are better than what Mobil and Castrol makes..

Toyota says use 5w30 or 5w20 or 0w20 as case may be on their manuals and on their oil cap. simply use an oil that matches that viscosity and meets manufacturer requirement..

Extended performance is just a term to denote that the oil will do 15,000 miles comfortably without wear or damage to engine.

Keep your obsolete opinions to yourself and stop miseducating people.

In the 12 months you bought oils from me, you claimed you do not want regular Castrol edge.. it must be Castrol edge extended performance guaranteed for 20,000 miles...

Oga tell the house why you only buy extended performance castrol... Tell the house why you don’t use regular Castrol edge and why you told me extended performance is better for your range rovers..


All of a sudden, extended performance is no longer good enough cos you are in a hurry to discredit me because I want my money..

You are too old to be talking from both sides of the mouth..

I have been busy since and I just came here to hear your noise. Before I came on your thread, did I not send you a mail to your dm? You responded after four days. If I want to tarnish you, why should I send you a dm. You are behaving like APC goons that attack the messenger and leave the substance. You can rant about Sooper rescue but I am not him but yes we worked together on advisory level. Go and sell your oil and defend it well because I have no intention yet to reveal all that I know of the source of your oil.

Sooperrescue, quit making a fool of your old age.. everyone can see beyond all this foolery.. just send my money and then you can keep scamming people as you normally do.. Every prominent member knows your method.. I was foolish to fall for it so I need to ensure new oil or parts sellers don’t fall for it too..

When you are done with your stupidity, you can reveal the source of the oils since you know much more than we do..

I am ready anytime to provide serial numbers so you can write Mobil USA..

65 year old fool!!
