Cool

Can anyone give me some advice on which oil I should be using at the next change. MY93 WRX has been running on Silkolene 5w40 but I have checked various sites and it appears that a lot of peeps are recommending 10w60.

Having looked on various sites I have come across Motul 300v Competition Oil. Has anybody used this oil ? and or can they recommend what oil would be best for my car.

Cheers

Motul has a very good reputation, but isnt the easiest oil to get hold off. I am not too fond of silkolene oils, they seem to be favoured more by bikers than cars. Try Mobil 1 Motorsport, 15/50.

STI are sticking their badge on the Motul 300V Competition 15W50 calling it WRC oil and probably doubling the price.
