Castrol OIL?
 
My garage has just changed my oil (05wrx 352/321) with Castrol Edge 10-60, anybody used this oil or know anything about it?

Just use it, it's only oil, and soon some tw@ will come on and tell you that 60 grade is treacle :cuckoo:

I use Millers 10w60 CFS myself.

It is like treacle, thats the entire point :lol1:
Either use a good 5w40, 10w40, 10w50 or in the warmer weather a 15w50, w60 is 50% thicker at 100 deg than a 40, on a seriously modified car its good as those run much higher temps, on a standard or slightly modified car its not good, it will cause drag, and its more strain for the oil pump (not good if you have an older car with higher miles and on the original oil pump imo).

i went into my local ubaru specialist on tuesday and asked for some oil (10w60) his reply was 'what do you want that for?' and recommended 10w40

standard 02wrx
