MonkeyVR6 0 Posted June 3, 2010 Ask that Opie Oils chap, he's sorted me out. http://www.opieoils.co.uk/Default.aspx? Thats his website, but I'm pretty sure he's on here too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted June 3, 2010 Quantum Synta 10W 40 (silver can). Can be had very cheap from VW and Audi dealers nowadays. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SIMONG 0 Posted June 3, 2010 cool, opie looks to be a good site it was saying 10 40 or upgrade? to 5 40. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MonkeyVR6 0 Posted June 3, 2010 I personally think a 5 weight oil is too thin for an old car, especially one with high mileage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reggit 0 Posted June 4, 2010 10 may even be too thin for a high miler - I'd be looking for a good quality 15 or even 20 weight if I was in your position. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 4, 2010 5, 10, 15 & 20 are the cold viscosities. It's the high temp viscosity that's more important with high milers and I'd be considering a 10W/50 personally. Speak to G Werks, the 60 is their speciality :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
undulattice 0 Posted June 4, 2010 Si, Volksworld have the Fuchs Titan 10/40 pretty cheap at the mo, or the Synta Silver for a couple of quid more. Same oil though I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SIMONG 0 Posted June 5, 2010 Cool beanz! Cheers For the advice people. Might have to nip in to volksworld see what he's got. Also could do with speaking to g-werks about some samco coolant hoses so could ask them at the same time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
