Is this Oil any good ???

wanted to move back from Mobil1 Full synthetic to

some thing semi synthetic (either mobil or castrol or any other)

went to auto barn preston on saturday hand had good chat with the lady from PENRITE ,

Who told me that semi-synthetic is way to go as its not only cheaper on pocket but also server pretty much the same purpose too. and unless i am really use some very high performance Car or using might my car for circut or track racing , Full-synthetic really dosent sever its full purpose.

so i bought

PENRITE

HPR 10

Semi Synthetic

SAE 10W-50


she also told me that because my car has only done 39,000 k (approx) i dont even need engine flush as there shouldn't be any wear / tear. So she said not to buy engineflush thingo. and simply change the oil at next service.

Just wondering if anyone else is using the above brand and/or same oil and how does it goes?

I like my Penrite.I think you may find that HPR15 15w-60 might be a bit thick for the Mitsubishi Magna.I use HPR5 5w-40
