Engine oil Castrol or Shell
Mannol 5W30 the one with JP at the end
Shell Helix Ultra 5W40 if you like to experiment, will make your bug quieter, but you will discover other noises (like tires, rattles of the trunk cover, gear noise, compressor of aircon).
Castrol. Bought twice from Amazon. Four litres for £19 the first time, £25 the second. Much cheaper than Halfords.
Normally Castrol racing 10w40, it's not expensive and not needed that often
Cu Castrol Edge 10w40 am avut rezultate bune la TDI-ul euro 3 (ALH). Am inceput sa il folosesc (in varianta 5w30) si la TDCI euro 5 si sunt in continuare foarte multumit. Am avut surprize cu Aral (asta e recomandarea producatorului, dar e ceva poșirca nici macar full-sintetica) si cu un Ravenol mai de soi la ALH, a mancat ulei. Cand am revenit la Castrol nu a mai mancat.
Shell Rotella T6 5w40 and Tokyo Roki OEM filter all day everyday.
Both oils significantly reduced oil consumption
Mas smooth siya kesa sa shell long ride tapos fully synthetic at API SP na din.
Yung sa pcx160 ko, bago ako lumipat sa amsoil dati ginagamit ko yung shell advance fuel save 10w-30 fully synthetic. Goods sya smooth sya gamitin at maganda performance
Same tayo ng Unit OP (Aerox V2)
Natry ko na both yan and mas nagtagal ako sa shell longride. Sa opinion ko lang mas smooth sa Makina yung shell long ride yung ultra scooter smooth din naman pero nagstay ako sa longride kasi ayun ang recommended viscosity sa Manual ng Aerox V2 (10W-40).
I'm at 308k miles and use cheap Castrol engine oil, house brand transmission fluid (the correct kind though), and the cheapest coolant I can find.
I run the diesel Rotella T6 5w-40. My catalytic converter decided to start throwing P0420 codes around 58k miles and I spoke to a shop that I am going to have tune my car and one of the techs said that they reformulated T6 a few years ago and it has more zinc in it than it used to and that might have had an effect on my cat and it's early demise.
