I use injector cleaner every 10k I cleaned the throttle and changed spark plugs recently but the problem still remains

It used to go directly from 700 to 800 rpm at idle whenever I turn on the ac Now it dips from 700 to 600 then stabilizes at 800 It feels it’s going to stall before it stabilizes at 800 rpm MG 1.5T odo 150k miles

My car is a by-design rough running Morris Garages Grand Touring. I recently switched my oil from Pennzoil Ultra Platinum to Liqui Moly MolyGen, both 0W-20, and honestly, the difference surprised me, but don’t get me wrong, pennzoil is a great oil. The engine feels noticeably smoother, and the...

This is a GM engine Same as the one on Malibu 1.5 T and some other small SUVs such as equinox

Every engine has a normal, slight amount of misfire (negligible) As for the engine information Check out this wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_small_gasoline_engine

Those are misfire counts for the last 10 trips read from the OBD reader. Car details: 1.5L gasoline turbocharged with direct injection system The engine has a compression ratio of 11.5:1 per owner manual. It’s a chinese vehicle but the engine is American technology, china cannot produce auch...

the sump it has is obviously bigger that of any other car with same or similar size, it’s probably there for better cooling?

The problem is it comes with a tricky dipstick, I can’t know for sure which grade is the correct one for oil level as it has no signature or any marking for F or Min etc like in other cars

Makes a lot of sense

Need your help to clarify what a dry Vs. wet type? Straight from ownership’s manual How can I know which one is for my car? It’s a Geely Coolray (SX11) 2023 1.5T gasoline direct injection

Magnetic Could probably be better than mainstream walmart branded API SP. But they cost 50% less than Castrol EDGE and is considered inferior to Castrol EDGE. Reason unclear.

What makes it a tear below EDGE?

The MG GT doesn't exist in all markets. Logic supports using the lowest cost product if they satisfied the OEM specs. But i am not convinced with just a normal API SP oil and can't waste a chance for improving wear protection. Oil is cheap but engines are not

I have used 6 brands of oil so far on the same car and never have I seen the oil turn reddish on the drain time as I saw when I drained Amsoil signature and castrol edge. The reddish color on drain is a detergent turn red when oxidized and it seems these two use a lot of detergent. Given the...

It's unpractical to replace seals and gaskets even at high mileage

I have used Total Quartz on every oil change. Probably some of it is counterfeit that's why it made a lot of sludg

I have used Total Quartz on every oil change. Probably some of it is counterfeit that's why it made a lot of sludge

Surprisingly it doesn't burn any noticable amount of oil.. I have fed it with Valvoline Restore and Protect now and it's been like 300 miles since .. I have always been gentle and slow on the gas paddle to an extent where it annoys very much everyone around on the road.

It's non synthetic oil (that's probably why it's bad)
