Guest prescience Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10864 I would say that any one from 5w-30, 5w-40, 10w-30 and 10w-40 is fine; I used 5w-40 Silkolene in my S/C Z People wanting to treat themselves to high quality oils tend to go for Silkolene, Motul or Amsoil and any of these at the above grades can be recommended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Yes - Opie oils do a discount for members - good service and helpful advice too. Think you need to get a code from a moderator, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember you just select the club you are with and 350z-uk is one of them. I use Silkolene Pro S which is a fully esther based synthetic. In fact my cars in for an Oil service as we speak. This stuff exceeds the spec of the best quality oil Lotus specify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trev-the-Rev Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Hi and 10w 50 may be a bit on the thick side. I personally use Castrol Magnatec in a 5w 40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
