It's service time (60k) & Im after finding out what grade engine oil & diff oils are to be used ?? A good quality one.

Cheers

 

SILKOLENE PRO-S 10W/50 in the engine, Silktran Syn 5 in the gearbox what i use

once used dealers oil and they put 5W/40! in (only to be used in minus temperature climates the service manual said!)

 

Thanks Dave....

Before asking a question now I use the search button.... as if you dont everyone seems to tell you to use the "SEARCH" button.

 

...and with damn good reason!

 

 

Sorry greasemonkey we all have to start somewhere don't we ??
Where not all born with a head full of know how !!!

 

Neither were the rest of us! The quickest way to learn is usually the Search, as you don't have to sit there waiting for someone to answer your question!

 

I used Silkolene Pro S in my last 2 oil changes. Even after a track day it still came out red. Good **** IMO

 

Motul 300V 15W50 in my sump and Castrol Syntrax in the gears, they seemed to get the most recommendations when I was looking before my last change. Mine's a GL non-turbo though so I hope the same advice applies.
Seems to run smoother and cooler (judging by the OE water gauge so who knows really..!) than with whatever the garage were putting in before I chose myself. It's a bit easier to get into 1st while moving a bit than it used to be, the 'box still has its off days though.

Give us a wave if you see a silver MY95 GL around Sheff

Cheers,
