carter711 0 Posted September 27, 2008 Hi, I need to change the oil in my C as it's running a bit low and im not sure what oil is in it at the moment. Soooo, in the experience of VR6 owners whats the best weight and brand of engine oil? Ive done a few oil changes before on my old cars so am pretty familiar with what needs doing however if anybody has got any tips on changing the oil on a VR6 motor let me know 8) Cheers!

Toad 0 Posted September 27, 2008 A lot of people use Synta silver from VW, semi synthetic. You need 6 litres I believe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted September 28, 2008 Best oil for a VR6 is the most expensive one you can be bothered to buy, in general. Use the search for more details, there's loads of previous threads covering this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carter711 0 Posted September 28, 2008 looking back at the service history it's had 00/40 in the past so i'll go for that kinda vibe... Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
