5/30 only, 10/40 is far too thick. Causes starting problems in mine, think its to do with the hydraulic valves and they need thin oil too work properly

Only use 5w-30 and an ACEA A3/A5 spec one will give best performance.

Look at Motul 8100 5w-30 or Motul Ford Specific 5w-30 on my website

The PF prices are in the Members Section of my website.
