Yes, Motul Gear 300 is a really good choice.

75w-90 Gear oil

Millers CRX and Silkolene Syn 5 are also worth a look

Motul 300v 15w50 for me

Banny

15w/40 is like syrup, wouldnt put that in a lawn mower, let alone in someones pride and joy - London Taxis use that oil a great deal (get the drift?)

Is that directed at me?

The oils sold at VAG outlets?

bigbadal1664

Dude
Yes it is but unless you come through me its very doubtful that you will get trade discount, or you know someone who works there! if you go to a normal VAG dealer, you WILL NOT get any discount! as they have been instructed not to give anything away

Guys
If you want a decent oil, you must always remember that its always best to choose a good quality make such as Shell, Castrol and a few others as these own their own Drilling platforms around the world, and the likes of Motul, Valveline, Comma etc dont

Is this oil not VAG specific, designed for VAG vehicles?

bigbadal1664

We have a large range of oils for a large range of vehicles, not just VAG group

scoobyady

what about mobil 1 15w/50 on a new age sti is this ok

oilman

iTrader: (9)

The newage handbook recommendation is 5w-30 or 5w-40 IIRC

Cheers

Not really relevant to oil for performance cars, or any cars. In fact you don't want an oil that has come out of the ground, you want a proper lab made synthetic. I think most of you guys who have used Motul, Silkolene, Millers, Redline and Gulf can confirm that their oils are very good, despite being lab made.

scoobyady

Thats what i thought but looked through the service history and it has alway had 15/50 - do you think i should change it to 5-30?

bigbadal1664

I would as 15/50 would be far too thick

oilman

iTrader: (9)

I would certainly consider a 5w-40 if driven hard but 15w-50 should not harm it, just going against the handbook for no particular reason unless it's heavily modded?

Hey oilman what would best suit my rb320 and then i'll get some from you.
Thanks Darren.

oilman

iTrader: (9)

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

http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-656-5w-40.aspx

Out of those, the best ones are the Silkolene Pro S, Millers CFS, Motul 300V, Redline and Gulf Competition.

scoobyady

thanks for the info i think i will get it changed noticed it being quite nosie lately on these cold mornings i suppose not circulating quick enough, thanks Ady

oilman

iTrader: (9)

Yeap, that's right. It's not flowing quick enough, so it's getting noisy

DAZ6151

iTrader: (1)

It was only made in 07 and it is standard 320ps 316bhp

oilman

iTrader: (9)

A good 5w-40 would be ideal, Silkolene Pro S, Millers CFS, Motul 300V, Redline or Gulf Competition

5w-40, 5w-40 oil, 5w40, 5w/40

We recommend 10w-50 or 15w-50 for this.
