Two types of Mobil One to look out for matey - I use as do many on here Mobil 1 Motorsport 15/50 Ideal for Cossies

Don't use normal 0/40 - that is like piss.

PM Matt at ML for best prices - normally Ł20 for 4 litres, or try Halfrauds and pay Ł37 for the same stuff

Good stuff

0/40 Mobil 1 is great on a brand new performance car, but it has no place near leaky Cossies!

Roll on tomorrow for Weston then

Ginge !

0-40 is actually not THAT bad as you all make out

i ran it on my cossie as a mate had a 205 litre drum of the stuff and it was fine,,,,,,,, when it got rattly a few tuners mentioned about it being the oil making it do that and to change to 15-50 and see the difference and so as i had a 7 litre sump i bought 75 quids worth to find,,,,,,,,,,,, wait for it


FOOK ALL DIFFERENCE !!!!!!


its a nicer oil and will shut up the tappets i supose but i remember that 10-40 caused the zetecs to have sticky valves and ford actually recomend -30 oil on cossies ect now

Matt doesn't post on here much which is a shame as he knows his cars and his prices are usually the best around. I've bought gallons of oil off him, as well as coil overs, and various genuine Ford engine parts at excellent prices.

He can post oil, but generally I see him at shows and pick up a few cans every few months.

His name is Matt Lewis - not sure what he posts under on here - either that name or Matt@ML rings a bell.

If you're stuck I'll try and find out his proper user name if I can
