for my 94 100k vr6 what is the reccomended oil. quantrum silver semi 15-40 or a fully synth ( i have been told to use fuchs titan 5w-40) i am a little unsure as i don't want to fuchs (ahem) my engine if u know what i mean. i want to drop the oil out this weekend as my oil temps are at 120! don't know why. could this be down to the wrong type of oil, wrong viscosity for the mileage or the garage not changing the oil when i asked them??

i am looking for just general servicing and advice when things go wrong.

cool. does that explain the soft mushy pedal? when i do upgrade is it worth getting drilled discs? are zimmermans worth a go??

cool i drove it from bucks to leeds last night and it was horrible braking from speed for the first time. might bleed them any way. what are the best pads to use if i do have to change them.
-
just got my vr6 back after having the diff rebuilt. it has been stood for a couple of weeks and the brakes feel very grumbly. the pedal also feels very soft. could the box bein out have affected the hydraulics for the brakes?? when the pads are worn does the brake warning light come on or not? or shall i just bleed the brakes?? ne help much appreciated! :)

not quite 140 but it has been done! -
noticed a huge patch of oil under my car the other day and it seems that all the gearbox oil has drained out of the gearbox. has ne one had any problems like this before. was diagnosed as a pin from the diff firing throgh the gearbox casing and the repair bill of 1200 quid, any ideas or experience of similar or common 'box problems would be greatly appreciated to get me back on the road as i miss my vr :( :( :( :( :cry: :cry: :cry:
