Who puts what oil in the engine? I just want to know what type everyone uses please and ratio's if poss.

Cheers

 

Motul 300v, 10w 50 (IIRC) for me

 

Any more helpers?? Please

 

Silkolene Pro S 10w/50

Try a search on Mobil, Motul or Silkolene and sit back for a few hours, there are many many different opinions about the best oil

 

castrol rs 10-60

Mobil 1 Motorsport 15W/50 (and Mobil 1 SHC 75W/90 in the gearbox). As has been said, the top full synths all do the job well, so no matter which you choose you'll be happy.

The only thing that can be added is that Prodrive recommend either Motul 300V 15/50 or Mobil 1 15/50 in the WR Cars, which says a lot.

 

Castrol RS 10W60 for me.

Had a recent thread going on in Drivetrain about this oil with some good input from others (on other oils too) -

Fully Synth from 76 Racing.

In my case (MY00 and WRX03) when I changed from other brands of oil to Motul V300 I had noisy tappets the first few minutes of warming the car!
I know all of you suggest V300 but I'll go back to Castrol RS 10W/60 that is also one of the best oils all around.
Has anyone else similar symptoms when changed from other brand to V300?

YES a number of ppl in OZ including myself with Motul 300v 15w-50.
Left it for a week(engine hard to start,noisy ??)
Normally use Redline 10-40 .This time I have Castrol 10-60

A majority of the dealers either have BP or Castrol in their bulk tanks,, so may help influence.

 

Cheers fellas for all your info, Where can I get Castrol RS?
Any good dealers you can recommend in the Romford/East London area?

Cheers again for all your input
