DriverVR6 11 Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Previously (for the last 12 years) I've used Mobil 1 Motorsport 15w/50, but this is now getting hard to get hold of. So now I mix in a 50/50 ratio, Mobil 1 New Life 0w/40 and Mobil 1 Extended Life 10w/60. Giving an overall fully synthetic viscosity of 5w/50. IMHO this is an ideal oil/viscosity for a VR6.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 6, 2014 Ken Barlow reckoned 10W/50 Silkolene Pro S is the best, but Ken Dodd told him to shove that and thinks Castrol Edge 10W/60 is better. Then Ken frickin Block stuck his oar in with Millers 10W/60 Nanotec stuff. "Kenny from the Block" reckons Mobil 1 5W/50 Motorsport is the dogs, and then Ken Hom threw his Wok out of the pram and insisted on Motul 300V. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
