HEADPHONES Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Costco in Manchester always have Edge 0w30 and 5w30 I'd buy those instead if I had a choice. A 30 weight is recommend but the manual says 5w40 would be OK in our climate. So it won't kill your engine if you needed it asap, but if not desperate just look for a good synthetic 30 weight.

jtuner Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 i ended buying 2 bottles of castrol magnatec 5w 30, 4l for £19.99, was getting close to closing time and i looked a bit shifty sitting in the car with a lap top looking around lol. They didn't have 5w 30 edge in stock so opted for magnatec instead. I use to use it my my type r and celica gt4 with no problems so i just stuck with what i know. cheers for the help.

BulletMagnet Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Edge would have been fine, Magnatec is not so good as it gets too thin for my liking compared to other oils of same weight and viscosity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtuner Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 ill see how it goes for 6 months with it in, if the zed doesn't like it i'll switch to fuschs titan race pro s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack wellZ Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I normally just order oil from opie oils website. If you haven't checked it out I suggest you do they have great prices and I had fast delivery times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
