What oil

[Jhandy]

Just bought the car. Practically standard. What oil should I put in it. As I want to do a service. Should know really as I'm a mechanic. But better to be safe then blow the thing up

10w40 Semi synthetic imo, I've used it in all mine without problem.

I use Comma/Halfords 15w50 Motorsport Oil - Fully Synthetic

Works really well and is very good oil!

Well I plan to run a bar of boost soon. Hmmm I use to put 10/40 in my old one.

Any good brand of 10w40 will do for now mate.

Hi

I would use a 5w-40 synthetic and you will find those through the link below.

Out of those, the best ones are the Fuchs/Silkolene Pro S, Millers CFS NT/CFS, Motul 300V, Redline and Gulf Competition. The Motul 8100 X-Cess, Millers XFS, Shell Helix, Fuchs Supersyn and Mobil Super 3000 are good, cheaper alternatives.

As a budget choice, a 10w-40 will be fine and I would either go for the Fuchs Syn MC, Shell Helix, Millers XSS/Trident or Motul 6100
