Whats the best stuff to use and what viscosity do I need? ive used the nulon brand and the castrol brand. castrol is nearly double the price, but sooo much smoother and a fair bit quieter... |

...i never said anything about the engine oil. i dont notice a difference brand-wise for that. but my PERSONAL opinion is that MY car runs smoother. YOU might think its bullshit, but for ME, in MY gearbox, it shifts much smoother... |

Does anyone use Magnatec Diesel 15W-40? Saw it today for the first time, thinking about giving it a try on my next oil change. Was looking to try a full synthetic, but the viscosity ranges seem less than ideal if 15w-40 is what to aim for - dunno if a motor with 230K will feel the benefit of a synthetic either. |

Why can't I find a 15W-40 fully synthetic oil? There's the a few blends but if you read the fine detail for most it's only the additives that are synthetic. Been using Nulon 20W-50 high km oil, but want to try a 15W-40 instead and see what difference it makes to my oil consumption... no full synthetics though in this viscosity, just mineral oils. |
