Hiya guys!

An oilchange is coming up...anyone that's tried Castrol's Formula RS 0W-40?
A mate of mine tried it recently, and I'm trying to get more input in the matter...

Regards

Jerry.
I think the general concencus is that like Monil 1, it's too thin.
The 10w-60 version would probably be a safer bet.

Mobil 1 0W40 is not too thin.

You need to consider the environment that the oil is being asked to operate under before you can determine the most logical oil choice.
