Now we all own an RS, the 22 yr old handbook says something like 5-30 i think (dont have it at hand so dont quote me)

now ive read in magazines and picked up here that on this cvh (standard) engine we should use 10-40 fully synthetic, now which should it be.

Im happy to follow the recommend advice, i have receipts for 10-40 in past (previous owners) only thing is im really struggling to find 10-40 fully synthetic, theres loads of semi but no fully, tried halfords, GSF, even andrew page. I know it does exist so im wondering what to do about it.

The car is standard, 167k on clock, what shall i do?

 

i always used 5-30 semi in my old rst it done 140000 miles

 

speak to oilman on here,

 

Hi there

In the Worshop manual , for Escos , it"s Mobil 5W50
In France , lot of people runs Yacco galaxy 15W50
or Castrol RS Edge 10W60 ( For Cossie )

 

Millers cfs 10/40 or 10/50 if you have more power than standard. I used to use Mobil 1 15/50 but found that a little thin as have a few other people so gona try millers 10/50

 

Spot on!
Or Fuchs Titan Pro S, both available from Opie Oils.

 

many thanks for your help, i have ordered the millers cfs 10-40 fully, just a question the guy on the phone said i could buy the gulf 10-40 its the same stuff just £20 cheaper, what are your and everyones thoughts on gulf
