I am going to use 10-50 Sikolene Pro S10 from Oilman. Propper Synthetic.

You will struggle to find genuine synthetic in any normal shop.

Give oilman a call and have a chat, they will explain hydro cracked synthetic is just fancy mineral oil and ester based is the real stuff.

If you buy 25l from him it works out cheaper than Mobil 1 too (which is a fake synthetic!)

hmmmm, im pretty interested in this as mine needs doing soon. I currently have RS 10/60 in mine, and i do have to say, it does tend to run a bit noisy....

It's certainly streets ahead of Castrol RS 10w-60 but costs the same.
