Waxoyle wont do any harm. Asking this question usually ends up with people squabbling about whats there. Im sure someone will state that JDM cars dont have any underseal; thats nonsense.

Incidentally, I thought that underlay was what carpets had beneath them....
Either that, or it's what Speedy Gonzalez shouts...

Most people reckon Mobil 1 in its usual grades is too thin for a Scoob turbo engine. Plenty of archived stuff if you have a bit of a search mate.
Many main dealers seem to use GTX semi-synth.

10W 40 seems to be a consensus, though there's plenty of alternative wisdom around on here....

So you put engine oil up under the wheel arches (where most of the water goes), it drips onto your tyres......and whollop, the first corner you come to
send's you into oblivion !!!!!!
Nah, i'll give that a miss .

I have to agree with Punkie. Harry_Boy that was a stupid suggestion. You know what a newby on here will go and do after buying their bargain scoob for sub £4k.
