Modern engines are designed to run tight bore clearances and thin oil to help with emmisions and overall effeciency. You should really use a thicker oil with a high power build for better protection. But this is down to how it's built though, every builder will have their way of doing things.

Havent found it too bad on the actual road mate its more the smell (organic burning or something) when you even balance for 2 secs on a hill or when reversing out driveway slope at start of the day - and slight judder picking off.
6k miles since fitting so you'd think that would have faded after a few weeks hmmmmmmmm. Will do for the moment and may replace in a year but just a heads for ya, as I'd prob avoid if selecting again.
