This has to be one of the most hotly contested issues on Scoobynet
5w 30, 5 w 40, 10w 40, 15 w 50, 10 w 60 , You will find people all championing these, with persuasive arguments for all of them
You pays your money and takes your choice
I would suggest that yoy use a semi or fully synthetic however
Personally I use 5 w 40 fully synthetic
Halfords are doing 5 litres of fully synthetic 5w 40 ( you will get people telling you that this is just enhaned mineral oil and not fully synthetic ) for £20 , reduced from £30.
Do a search on oil to see what I am talking about
All the best

~DrEaM~

i uses silkolene Pro S 10W50 or Motul 15w50

scoobykevuk

i use 5w 40 too!!!!!!!!

stockcar

would normally use at least a 10w on a 'classic' car..............either Motul or Millers are the only companies we use & supply and they are currently leading the rest in terms of pukka ester synthetic technology...............

Silkolene is the daddy but Subaru use semi 10 40 shell helix in mine

silkolene pro r 15w50 in mine for the past 5 oil changes never gave me reason to change, tried millers once when i first had mine but the engine sounds a bit more tappety with the thinner stuff.(only slightly)
