Service oil

[Rx7_wot]

Hello guys, Due a service on my rx, its a extended street port, single turbo
Just unsure on what engine oil people recommend on here?
I’m looking at 10w40 mineral
Should be fine? Cheers guys.
(Found this on ebay)

yeah any will do, you'll be changing it every 3k anyway so just buy cheap and twice

I use sand

You still running the omp?
I use Shell HX7 but oil is a can of worms! Speak to your engine builder if you don’t have a preference yourself

No omp bud

No omp bud

I would only use mineral oil if you still had the OMP

 

[Matt]

I don't have OMP and run Shell HX5

I like baby oil. I have lots of it hanging around anyway so might as well.

 

[Spendyrx]

Yeah @Luke Hardy can supply you with the baby oil if needed! I don't think he runs omp though!

Spotted this mineral oil in tesco the other day, half tempted to give it a punt

 

[Spendyrx]

Bloony expensive that Andy! I just got 5 litres of triple qx mineral on ebay for 13 quid!

 

[welshkid]

Ah, thought it was cheap, hadn't checked ebay haha, cheers!

 

[Adam]

I use this eBay special. Does the job.

 

[Spendyrx]

That works out a pretty good price

say what you want but running completely cheap oil is not great, even being rotary and you change oil very often it has spinning parts which wear out.
Oil quality is determined by formulation and additive packs in it, this is what you pay for.
I run Motul 4000 Mineral 10w30 https://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-870-motul-4000-motion-10w-30-mineral-car-engine-oil.aspx Motul products are always good, you never will get it wrong.
