We will start to think about changing new cars. Until it has become overwhelmed by the issues, we get fustrated. Maintenance will become a hassle and Karma will come! Eventually modifying and changing too many after market stuffs that are un-neccessary, reinventing the wheel or trying to better the engineering team in Subaru. But when seldom take hard corners or sudden switch of directions like in S- curve, might not need to change ARB at all. wheel hub bearing noisy or wear and tear faster.Īt the same time, would have to see if the grease will be washed off? Maybe by rain, melted by heat radiating from the engine? Then it will be less than 2 years. Issues might not appear immediately, but only sometime later. If changed to slightly bigger or smaller or different offset. When something is modified or change, the force on the driving dynamics just shifted to other parts or components. The corolla will have lesser maintenance than SJG. It's just like if driving a Toyota Corolla and a Subaru Forester XT. It is just the maintenance that will come with it. You get the drive feel and fun that you wanted. Kinda regret to change arb.ĭo not regret changing ARB. They told me the grease is special kind and can last around 2 years so it means I need to go back every 2 years? Lol. I went back to the workshop and told them to reapply the grease. Rather, to better protect engine, change engine oil regularly and frequently with the appropriate standards and rating. As to use 5W-40 it is only increasing drag on the engine internals, the engine oil will take longer time to reach necessary lubricating parts than 5W-30 oil and increase wear and tear instead. of 3.5mPa.s) Where else, achieving API SN oils can also either achieve ACEA C2 or C3 standards too.), should use only 5W-30. As doesn't mean a 5W40 oil have better characteristics than 5W-30 oil.Įven if both have similar standards such as ACEA C3 or C4 ( Why ACEA C3 or C4 standards? As they need to fulfil the minimum H. If the claim to use 5W-40 engine oil will protect engine better, then it is totally illogical and senseless. Even racing down the North South Highway maybe around 3k to 4k rpm.
SJG coupled with CVT, while driving on Singapore Roads, engine speed usually in range of 1.5k to 2.5k rpm. Else, why not use 5w-50 or 10w-60 oil? (Maybe in 24 Hours of Le Mans, where the engine is not stopped and going on and on at high engine speed all the time.)

As our owner manual suggest which I always prefer thinner oil.įrankly, it really does not make sense to use 5W40 engine oil. I expecting to continue drive this car till at least 8 to 9 yrs.īTW I only used 5W30 engine oil. Definitely better drive than default.Ĭar tuned at just after 10k mileage, currently 4.5yrs. My FXT is tuned, my max torque after tuned obtain is less than 2k rpm. Look at Merc or BMW, their 2.0L turbo max torque are all obtain at low 1k rpm. Our FXT max torque start at 2.4k rpm which is consider very high for modern 2.0L turbo engine. Tuned does not mean always need to cheong red line or high speed.
