Hi,
Its time to do an oil service on my 97 4ltr. Its 37 thousand miles on it and doesnt leak a drop of anything anywhere and has been fully serviced at least once a year by jeep. I use it as a DD.
Tomorrow im gonna have a go at pulling the oil pan and have a look see how much sludge i have kicking around in there and if it looks ok I wanna change to a fully sythentic oil (i wont even mention the brand because i dont want to get into that argument!!)
Where i live there is no 10w40 fully sythentic oil. 99.9 percent of the FULLY sythentic oil that i have found so far is 0w40 regardless of brand. The other weight of oil that i found was 0w30, 15w50 and on ebay i saw 5w30.
So far i have only found 10w40 (which is what i wanted to stick in), in PART sythentic? This is widely available. Even looking at other brands though i cant find any 10w 40 fully sythentic??
ok so its mobil 1 that i wanna use. I asked an assistant what was going on and they told me that theve never heard of any mobil 1 or any other brand 10w40 fully sythentic which many of you use????
so the question is would this 0w40 be good for the car, ive done a search but it doesnt get mentioned that i could see? or would the 10w 40 part sythentic be better??
many thanks
