Your B series mileage is more than half a million km already, and still going strong :top:. Mine has only done 87,000km. I'm using Shell full synthetic 5W40. So far the performance is good and oil level is also ok.

Ya, so far so good. I was lucky, got this engine from a halfcut shop with only 67,000km on the odometer two years ago :biggrin:

I'm not really picky about engine oil, as long as the viscosity is 5W40 full synthetic and it's sold by reputable shop or supermarket like Tesco. Too many reused/fake oil flooding the market right now. :mad:

I agree. If for normal use, a branded FS with scheduled OCI is good enough......:driver:

The year is 2016... make sure you choose something semi-synthetic at the very least.. engine oil has come a long way.. Motul is pretty reputable. Long distance trips with smooth traffic is actually the least strenuous on the engine.
