Hello,
My car (MY97 turbo) is due a service and I was wondering what the best oil to use is? Cheers, Crawford. |
Anyone?
|
Motul 300v 15w50
You can get it from Demon Tweaks Iain |
Or you *may* still be able to get in on the group buy in the Scottish Forum. Worth asking anyways...

Iain,
It's 300v Comp isn't it? That or Redline (both from Demon Tweaks) Matt :) |
Yup Matt,
The 300v 15w50 is the Competition oil Iain |
Thanks guys.
probably sound daft here, but is that oil ok for my car? as I don't do track days or anything like that. |
They are some of the best oils, why wouldn't they be ok? They are designed for everyday use, they are not "race" oils but they will work well on road and/or track.
I use the Redline personally but there isn't a lot in it (according to the petro-chemist I spoke to). Matt :) |
Matt
Would this stuff be ok after the 1000 mile service on my STI or should I use a semi synthetic for a while Steve |
We sell Motul (cheaper than DT as well).
Stick with semi synthetic until after 5000 miles or so. Allow the engine to bed in well and then switch to the Best quality (Fully synthetic) Oil you can. I'd also agree that there's little between the Redline oil and Motul. Mike. Scooby Mania |
Is the Slick50 Fully Synthetic treatment stuff any good or a waste of money ?.
|
COMPLETE waste of money.
Loads of info on the web about why it simply cannot work. :eek: |
few sites 4 ya:
oil1 oil2 with more sites mentioned in those threads. Basically after reading as much info as i kud i went with da millers fully synth 10W:40 motorsport as i dont need a 50 or 60 since i dont do track days or owt that extreme & 15W seems a tad on the thick side but still better than 0W or 5W! Anyway chap gave me a millers reps No for getting this oil which if u want i can pass on? Good luck then anyhow:D Si |
NB mines also a MY97 so i presume u also have gone past da run in period;)
NB2 my dealer was using a 5W:40 part synth shyte since "they also service fiats & isuzus so need an all round oil" which aint good enuff 4 my baby so me buy as mentioned previous now! Si |
