Api sf for cars produced in 1988. 30 years old vehicles. Peugeot 504 sl and Gr. Vw Santana and Lada and Volga, and Vw igala, and Vw beetles aka tortoise car and Suzuki. Api SF was the reason SON raided the warehouse of Seahorse claiming substandard products. Why are the avoiding the major oil dealers is strange. Anyway, good to know. We are on. Dont forget to send me all those information and oil so that we can start the process. Good morning

Sir you will have to get the oil yourself. Happy oiling.

Laissé tombé alors. The review is not feasible without the oil. Do it yourself. Oil that is not even on your website, is that oil?

I don't work for or with MRS. Just giving you moral support so you don't quit halfway.

Merci

Be fast with the report.

Yes ma.

At your behest, I went to the MRS at ile zik and saw the elusive synthetic oil. Apart from it being an Api sn, there is no information about the vehicles that it has approval for, only that it was made in Holland. I saw the other obsolete oils. Api sc/sd and api sf and it even has NIS logo on it.
Investigation continues

Oh good. I just spoke with an engineer at the mrs head office... Who promised to give me the number of the lubricant manager. Kudos.

How did they get NIS logo on the API SC SD and SF?

That is what baffles me. I need the lubricant number please. This oil is something else. They are hoarding information.

They are truthful sha o. They put danfo and santana fotos on one of their oils while forgetting that danfo drivers use roadside oil to service their buses

Just called SON and they told me that they recently upgraded the minimum oil benchmark to API SF and that there are no additives to even support API SD obsolete oils. The NIS mark on MRS products is misleading as they cannot use the mark on an API SC which was below their minimum benchmark in 2004. The API Sd has been on since 2004 and was recently reviewed to API SF. So what are we doing with all these obsolete oils in the country. Even the SF is obsolete but SON used their church mind and reviewed it.

Investigation continues.....

Waiting for the number. Been trying to call those lines you gave and it is a waste of funds. Like I stated earlier, the new minimum benchmark is API SF. And it is becoming interesting.........

MRS 10W-40 semi synthetic version is 18,000. Unreasonably priced. According to one of their managers ... But API SN.

Same here

The 10w40 that I saw which is 9500 is api sl. The total oil packages are not healthy. The lub guy promised to call back but he has not done that. He claimed that the api sc/sd on the sae 50 is an error. On where they got the NIS sticker, though it is voluntary, we decided to talk later. I cannot advice anyone to use the 5w40 when we dont have any vehicle approval for the oil. At least let it even be Gm diesel.

What is the problem with these people? One of them said it was 18k for 10W-40 semisynthetic. Is the one you priced conventional oil?

It was 9500 and api sl. I was excited because I was looking for such grade to service a freelander and I managed Total Q7000. The synthetic goes for 13500. I was amused that MRS intend to sell in the Ecowas region hence the bilingual info on the gallon. The lub manager promised to send the details that I asked for but I am still waiting for his call. Thanks for your efforts. With the upward review of the minimum benchmark to Api sf, all those oils that are a disgrace to the brand should be withdrawn from the market. SON should have taken the review to Api sj which will allow better products into the market. Honda baby boy v6 requires 5w20 api sj and the owners are using any 20w50 they find.
Investigation continues....... Join me at the auto fair tomorrow. It is a must be event. Our vehicles future is at stake.

How I wish we all had traded along this part of knowing genuine oil via api for obsolete n current,we would have created positive awareness rather than 5w 20w this n that that does not matter in the long run.Some companies really need shut down walahi.

MRS is scary.... the regional manager gave me the prices@18k for the 10w-40... which sopperescue got for 9,500, and he didn't even know what price the 5W-40 goes for!!!

And some people are jobless in Nigeria...

Shalomc:

We are not recommending 20W 50. 50 grade oil might be too thick. Like I said 20W, 5W 10W are all the same in our climate... Then follow your manufacturers recommended grade for the second digits.... using the recommended API. I don't trust oando though. What did you do to get your range back to shape? This thread is to learn I believe.

Yes o
