Well the thing is she doesn't really see any winter miles, just spring and summer though our summers aren't very hot.

'tis a shame, I rather liked the idea of running the Bug on it.

OK I think I understand, not top flight stuff then.

Would it do in an air cooled Volkswagen? Seen guys mention Diesel oils for these a few times.

Would it be OK in a petrol car? Fuchs just emailed me the specs and I have no idea what it all means... SAE Grade DIN 51 511 10W/30 Viscosity at -20ºC ASTM D 2602 3200 mPa Kinematic Viscosity at 100ºC ASTM D 445 11.8 mm2/ Kinematic Viscosity at 40ºC ASTM D 445 80.2 mm2/ Viscosity Index ASTM D...

A buddy of mine works in Fleets and has just given me a five litre bottle of a rather unusual mineral oil that was given to him by a rep from Fuchs. It is Fuchs Titan Universal HD 10W/30 All-Season. Apparently it is current product and not old stock though I can find nothing about it on the...

I remember envying the old 20w50 Syntec for Classics you used to have

Just to chime in here. May mean nothing after all, but in Europe w20 oils are still pretty uncommon. I can't imagine there are many differences between the engine for the US and the engine for Europe if any.

Nobody really uses diesel oil for petrol applications here dude. besides which, petrol rated 15w40 is still very common. What I think people want is a period oil for their period car. I'll bet a lot of Comma Classic sales are down to the can it comes in alone. If I were really wanting to use...

Just remembered I have two accounts, one at home and one at work sorry. Yep England, before I started visiting this site I had barely even heard of Amsoil but after a good while of reading posts by yourself and others I became pretty impressed with it all and especially after I looked into the...

Here in the UK we make our own Honda Fit(Jazz) models which is nice.

From reading the bottle, it sounds like it wants to be all things to all men.... Mobil 1 Extended Life 10W-60 is engineered to help provide long lasting protection in higher mileage engines so you can get long life out of your vehicle. •Extra seal conditioners to help prevent oil leaks •Helps...

She had more than that buddy

She's the kind of girlfriend for who I also washed and waxed the car for and next time will get M1 0w40, now the stash is used up Incidently, here is a picture of her car, well its not hers exactly but its the same age, colour and model so you get the idea. Seat Arosa, 1.0 litre S
