Primey Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Hi all, I was just wondering what grade of engine oil people are using in DEs? Mines due a change after a drift day at Santa Pod on Wednesday. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey_83 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 I've pretty much swapped brand of oil every oil change since ownership, had Motul, Castrol, Shell, Fuchs 5w30 or 5w40 to which the car felt best on Castrol 5w30 C3 stop start.

Beefy Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I find 5w30 burns off too quickly and ends up running a bit, well... "Low pressurey". I used 10w-40. But I send it a fair amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anth4130 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I used MLR 10w50 when I was using the V6. No oil cooler, never had any problems. Standard grade oil I was getting low oil pressures when it was hot (I hot lapped if the opportunity was there), on the off chance I tried the thicker oil before putting a cooler on and it was fine so kept running it.
