Engine oil...

[Adriank]

Sorry to post this its probably been asked before, but im getting the oil / filter done, what oil do people use in their cars?

 

I need to buy the oil tommorow, so is nissan best bet or any other places i can buy it? How much does it use 5 litres enough?

 

Thanks in advance

I get my oil and filter changed regularly by kwik fit. I was charged £39.99 for Mobil 1 5w 30 fully synthetic!! See, they do have their uses sometimes. Why get your hands dirty, dispose of it properly, and pay more for the oil and filter from halfords etc. You know it makes sense

Silkolene PRO S 5W-40 FROM OPIEOILS

i used to use the silkolene pro S from oilman on my old Integra, but the guy i get my servicing done with uses castrol edge 10-60 in everything, as its what his race cars run.

 

Should i avoid that oilin the 350, or would it be ok still? I'm going to have a look round locally and see what i can find in 5-30, but most are in 4l tubs so going to have to get a 4ltr and a 1ltr :-(

Do you have any idea on oil temps? The Castrol RS is now known as the Castrol Edge Sport here http//www.opieoils.co.uk

 

To be honest you can do much better, take a look at the ester based oils of the Silkolene Pro S and the Motul 300v. These are proper performance synthetics.
