Supercharged 2 Posted December 6, 2005 I'd say the heavier one is more likely to reduce the consumption... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted December 6, 2005 This time of year you'd be better with the 10w50 anyway. Because its cold the 15w50 will have more trouble getting around the engine, its almost half as thick again @ zero. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 6, 2005 Yep I use the Pro S 10W/50 and oil consumption has definitely dropped. Halved in fact - when compared to quantum silver. 15 weight might be a bit heavy as already mentioned. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beaker 0 Posted December 8, 2005 Could anyone recommend a good oil, and what grade? My car has a pretty high milage at 181K. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted December 8, 2005 Try a search mate. Any threads author'd by oilman (resident oil expert) will give a you a good idea. There are loads of discussions on oil! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
