I read through hours of threads here on oil and ended up no nearer to deciding! Everyone seems to use something different for different reasons. In the end I went to opie oils and sent their form with my car and mod details, they got back to me with their recommendation really quick and was delivered in a couple of days. Great service well recommended.

I went for Millers 5w40 CFS fully synth.

Let the debate commence

60 weight is horrid, especially with winter coming, the 5w40 or a 10w40 are sufficient for your needs a 10w50 would be top if you have a higher mileage car.
