gradeAfailure 0 Posted September 4, 2006 might want to try something a little thicker - I know Kev rates the Silkolene Pro S 10W-50 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted September 4, 2006 I swear by Synta Gold from your local VW dealer fully synthetic and reasonably priced Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoonlightVR 0 Posted September 4, 2006 That Vauxhall stuff will be fine as 10w40 is arguably the ideal viscosity for a VR6. Quantun silver is exactly the same spec, 10w40 semi-synthetic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 5, 2006 Might be ideal for a sub 100K engine, but not one older.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
