Post by: FD3S Efini on August 01, 2010, 08:15:05 PM

Ok iv been searching on here for a while trying to see what oil to use in the car but only seem to find 15w40,

Im in the same boat as alot of people i ussually use Castrol GTX 10w40 mineral oil but as alot of people know they no longer make it,

What im after is suggestions for a 10w40 mineral oil that isnt halfords own make,

Thanks in advance

Hi,
I use Pennzoil 10w40 mineral oil, not sure if running non sequential will make much difference in this case..? Valvoline also do a 10w40 mineral.
Good luck,
James.

I\'ve just put the comma Mineral in the FB. Was only Â£14 for 5lt so we shall see.

Looking at loosing the OMP system on the FD so may be using something else.
