Default Engine oil

Hi all,

What engine oil do you all use for your monsters and which would you say is the best?

Also a quick question does anyone know how to remove the side wing mirrors as the drivers side mirror is rocking backwards and forwards when on the move

Not sure about the mirrors buddy but I use either 10w40 or 10w60 Fully Synthetic oil!! Other people use different types but this is what I like

Mobile 1 15/50 or Silkoline 10/50, both fully synthetic oils. For the mirror, if its a classic, gently pop off the triangular trim panel inside the car then theres 3 screws behind it and as you take it off unclip the wiring harness.
