A common problem for car users is being deceived into buying fake engine oil. Mr. MOTOR EXPO has simple checking methods to share.
1. Observe the container
The container must be in perfect condition, not dented or show signs of having been opened.
2. Check the label thoroughly
There must be a label indicating the date of manufacture (day/month/year), volume, and a standard control certification mark.
3. Has a quite strong smell
Experts can use the sniffing method. This smell comes from chemical additives. High-quality engine oil contains a high proportion of additives, resulting in a quite strong smell due to the concentration of these substances.
4. Buy from a reputable dealer
Use the trustworthiness of the seller in making a decision, or there must be a clear indication of the origin of the sale, whether it comes from a genuine manufacturer or importer.
