Asalamalykum,
I wanted to Flush my car's engine oil,Since Im doing it first time here, I wanted to know if they do it though machines ( i used to do it in Dubai- Emarat Petrol Pump by Automatic Machine).

Anyone is aware if such kind of service is offered anywhere in Jeddah.

Thanks.

Hey,

I work for Shell Motor Oils so you can say, I got my hands in oil.

I wouldn't recommend getting an oil change through the machines here. They don't do it properly unlike the Dubai outlet who have proper equipment to do the needful.

Get the classical pit drain oil change. Which car do you have currently so I can advise on the best oil in the market and recommend the grade as well.

P.S. Shell has the worlds most advanced oil, We are the only company in the world making the Gas-To-Liquid oils which are the purest oils in the world. All our line-up is developed with Ferrari and All Ferrari's get a first fill of Shell Helix Motor聽 Oils range. There is a reason to why Shell is the worlds largest lubricants supplier for the past 7 years in a row.

Try any of the Shell Helix range and I can guarantee you will feel the difference, all our oils are API S/N standard, the highest in the market.

Thanks Guys.

Does Petromin have automatic machines for the oil change or do they also do聽 pit drain oil change.

@iusman975. Sedan, Nissan Sunny. Any oil recommendations+ (4K ,5K, 10K Km) will help..

Thanks and Eid Mubarak.

Hey,

Petromin has both but I wouldn't recommend Petromin for 2 factors聽
1) obviously I work for Shell
2) Their oils have a very secretive production which kinda makes me suspicious about recycled oil which is harmful for the car.

Great, Use Shell Helix HX-5 10W30 . It's good for 7,000 KM.
A yellow bottle, API SN Pureplus Technology.

If you want, I can direct you to a shop where you will get s guranteed good service because these oil chnage shops can con you easily by giving you expired and below standard products.

Synthetic for a straight 4 engine wouldn't make sense buddy. The 5w30 or 5w40 viscosity can cause damage to a small displacement engine.
