It will be soon, just keep an eye on this thread. Cheers Guy.

They are very similar quality Cheers

Cheers Guy. Can you recommend a good fully synthetic for a reasonable price? Strike a balance between cost and quality. Thanks Gaz Yes, a few spring to mind http://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-805-mobil-s ... e-oil.aspx http://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-877-motul-8 ... hetic.aspx The dogs nadgers and top option http://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-1146-silkol ... gines.aspx For the highly modded or tracked! Cheers
-
Not so good a semi-synthetic, if the car is modded or tracked, you will need something a lot better than this Cheers
-
Yep, ideal fella. Those are pretty basic Vdub specs so its mineral based for sure. Keep it to regular changes. Is it 5w-40? Cheers Guy.
-
Yeah its good, what kind of price is it at? Any idea what VW specs it meets? Cheers Guy.
-
Depends in what application :)
-
I dont think it is no, a hydrocracked mineral oil. Cheers Guy
-
SYNTHETIC? What is it and what does it really mean? The Oxford Dictionary says:
-
Motul 300v uses diester and polyolester, the Silkolene use just diester, diester is important one that both the oils contain. Speak to both chemsits and they will argue why each is better, it is very much 6 of one, half dozen of the other. Millers claim to use tripple ester! but so far could not tell me what ester it was. Cheers Guy.

No motul only do the 15w-50. I would go 10w-50 from Silkolene. Cheers Guy.
-
It may require a good oil but it does not require an SAE60, your giving it high blood pressure... SAE50 is ideal and there is much better to choose from then the 10w-60. Have a look at the SIlkolene Pro S 10w-50 and the Motul 300v 15w-50. Cheers Guy

Quality, Edge is better.

Got a tasty Castrol one coming up not this weekend but next weekend. Is it for the Corrado? Cheers Guy.

It is expensive, but then it is among the best money can buy. You may or may not notice anything but your engine will, you have to rely on the chemistry of it. Cheers Guy.

If you want the best is the Motul 300v 5w-40, next down is the Motul 8100 Excess 5w-40. Cheers Guy.
-
5w-40 is fine, however Halfrauds own is pretty basic stuff and not really up to the job of fast road and track work. Look at a genuine synthetic such as the Silkolene Pro S and Motul, ideal for both road and track. Cheers Guy. Yes i also have the 5w-40 in my car at mo. Is this thick enough for summer?[/quote:1qhurd3v] Yep, unless heavily modded, used on track or has a thirst for oil then no need to go thicker. Cheers Guy,
