Engine Oil - New Memo From Japan
 
Hi guys. I've seen several posts on this forum regarding this topic. However, would like to share something with you.

I juz bought my 6MT rx-8 from MM last week and recently received an SMS from the car dealer. She said that they received a new memo from Japan which says only to use Mineral Oil and not synthetic.

Personally, I know next to nothing about engine oil - juz thought of sharing this latest update with you guys.

Cheers! :cwm27:

Haha.... That is how much MM motors knows.

EBS 05-25-2006 11:45 AM

Hahaha

When u go for ur next service at MM, ask for the official memo from Mazda Japan (2004) that say that u can use synthetic oil. Maybe 2006 RX8 use only mineral but tks for the info anyway. Its better for u to see the actual memo instead of hearing from the SE. Ask her to fax to u lor or show u next time u go down the showroom.

Cheers

Well, if the info that legendary receives is true, the memo is from Japan, not MM. But as with most things in this site, take it with a pinch of salt and verify it for yourself before you accept it as absolute truth.

legendary 05-25-2006 05:52 PM

Hahaha. Noted. Will ask for the memo when I go for the 5k servicing and check with the mechanic.

I dont think she would say something like that unless its true (she actually sent me an SMS last week to stress the point). Anyway, from what I've read on this forum, synthetic works fine. Juz thought that you might want to know this latest "development".

I think the chick is making her move on you..... 1st sms to you... telling u shes prefers mineral oil .....

THe next sms, shell tell u dont waste money to buy synthetic (rubber), natural mineral oil will do... Careful, when you do your 5k servicing on her, remember to make her bleed.... THOROUGLY

haahaaa......maybe the next memo will be something like the shifter size :fingersx:

good imagination!!!

Actually, i don't think its too far fetch. I know a friend's dad who married his (BMW) car sales person. At his age, i don't think it was the size nor how well he can use the shifter that was important to her.

Maybe Legendary is living up to his nic? He can pull them from all sorts of angle.

He's just trying to be nice and pass along some info he got.

EBS and sqflyer has already made a good (and objective) point about verifying the information before releasing it.

So what's with the abuse from everyone else?

legendary 05-26-2006 04:21 AM

No worries, I can take a joke!

The sales exec you are all so excited about is closer to a mother hen than a "chick". My god.....

Have a nice weekend!

Stephy88 05-26-2006 04:36 AM

which one?

hmm.. there's only this few...

CoupeM 05-26-2006 07:00 AM

mother hen? milf? sugar mummy? :P

Are you serious? What we said was abusive?

FYI: Definition of abuse:
  1. To use wrongly or improperly; misuse: abuse alcohol; abuse a privilege.
  2. To hurt or injure by maltreatment; ill-use.
  3. To force sexual activity on; rape or molest.
  4. To assail with contemptuous, coarse, or insulting words; revile.
  5. Obsolete. To deceive or trick.
Aiyoh... So, I hardly think we have done any of the above... unless its a reflection of your own sensitivity? Besides, it was all in juvenile jest.
A nic like Legendary? If anything we were very kind and complimentary towards him.

Come on, dun be angry...I think mugo was juz trying to be nice n worries that
Legendary might be offended by some of the jokes here...Guess coz not

Lets juz make peace, everyone... :Peace:

Mother hen? But shes a sales exec...how bad can she be? Hmm...I think
probably MILF... :drool: Heehee... :mdrmed:

Mugo: THose of us who added in the salt and vinegar have no intention to mock or displease anyone. Of course we are grateful for Legendary's input, no malice intended. As the usual case for any forum, individuals who pen or rather type FIRST thoughts.. so the structuring of sentence might seem provocative in a certain way, but im very sure all participants in this forum arent out to #$%^*(*(^^& others...

Rei: I think u watch too much MILF MILF movies... hahahaha.. then again.. its individual's liking *wink* *wink*

------------------------------- WORLD PEACE----------------------------

lowrider 05-26-2006 07:53 PM

INXS: "Salt and vinegar"... I think it was more sugar and spice. Saying that legendary was pulling some chick ain't exactly an insult? (He may take offence if he was gay, (which we assume he wasn't) or he is a catholic priest... then younger boys would be their preference.... joke lah! :yelrotflm)

We were implying that he was a Legendary Stud! Abusive? Thats insulting... something you use in relation to cases involving maids, wifes animals or girl/boyfriends. I don't think we were anywhere near that level!!

If anything we were sucking up (in a non-physical way... in case you think we are "gaying" up) to him. I guess this explains why in Singapore we only talk about safe topics... food and more food.. since anything else, may "insult" people! Die like that! :dunno:

Stephy88 05-26-2006 10:33 PM

Hahaha...no choice, i'm in the generation where the influence of TV is very
strong... :rock:

Besides, the milf of today is simply mind blowing...they now dress to kill n
are not afraid to flaunt wat they got...1 really fine example of MILF has
got to be...Christie Chung... heehee :FIREdevil
