Starlet__SR Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Best thing to do is speak to Opie Oils, they're brilliant when it comes to oil advice and sales. 5w40 should be fine once run in.Day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletburkie Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 use a cheap mineral oil and change offen when running in Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flaminsam Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Yup use mineral oil. It will protect the engine during running in. And once the engine is run in don't use fully synthetic. These engines are not designed to use it. Semi synth is more than adequate. The fully synthetic has less protective qualities than semi synth. And is also quite thin.

mech5107 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I run Eneos full synthetic 5-40 in my 2etelu with 230.000klm. Changing every 7000klms the oil consumption is around 500ml...but the turbo is also started to burn some oil... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flaminsam Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Mech does your car use 500ml per month or every oil change? I've used semi synthetic in all my engines and not had a problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
