Default Oil

Hi!
I am from lincoln and I would like to buy a propper oil to my car. I was looking for it in allwoods, actually for Millers 10w60, but they havent got it. Also Motul 15w50 300v competition, but also hard to buy one. Can somebody advice me where can I buy this products, or maybe somebody use Valvoline R1 racing 10w60 or other one in this specification?? My car done 89 000 miles but has been run on castrol 10w40 and valvoline maxlife 10w40. I think these oils are not a too good for subaru engine and I want to change it ASAP.
Thanks

You can buy the Motul 15w50 from here - Untitled Document - They only use Motul unless a customer specifies they want something else. They will send you everything you need to do an oil change: Oil, filter, and sump plug washer.

If the car has done 89k on Castrol 10w40 and Valvoline Maxlife 10w40, why would you want to change from it now? Any damage would have made itself known by now. Using a higher quality oil at 89k will not put right any damage. I'd stick with the 10/40 and change it more often at that mileage. Bob

Did you phone them? They always have Motul, as that's what they use for oil changes.

Thanks for advice mate, but I made a mistake with semi synthetic oil, and i know for a fact it will make a difference. on the motul 15w50 I heared similar engine runs smoothly and soft, besides my engine is in top order so I dont wan to kill it by the bad oil.
But I will keep Your advice in mind
