I changed my car engine oil from G Life Gold bcoz I can’t find it here in Uyo to Hardex yesterday I on the car this morning and it’s sounding differently. Before you will never notice the car is on if you are steaming it now you will notice from far . I need help I bought the oil in mechanic village Uyo.

Modify :
Using it for Toyota Avalon 2014.
You bought fake oil. We've always preached against using sub-standard products. I could supply you genuine Mobil 1 5W20 or Castrol from Abuja if it's okay by you.

I recall last December, I went around various markets and mechanic garages in Uyo, spoke to various people so as to know the mindset of people here because I wanted to set up a shop where I'd be selling US and EU oils, radiator coolants and brake pads, the I got was very poor. Most mechanics told me the owners here just buy any oil and top up and they don't bother to change oil filter. This was a huge shocker to me!

Don't use cheap oils for that car.

Let me offer my 2cent. This business is a niche business. Only a handful of car owners care about their cars .... If you can target high end car owners u might be able to break through..... And only very few will appreciate the fact that you are telling them the truth......

Never mind what is written on the bottle or how we the bottle looks ..... do you know what's inside?... is it really what the bottle says? ... was the original oil used and the bottle refilled with a different type and grade oil? Bro.... if you love your car buy oil from a reputable dealer. Genuine oil can never be more expensive than an engine. Change the oil.
