  • Is this history low?

  • Thanks!

    10w-30 fully synthetic oils have become harder to come by these days… Other than Castrol I don't seem to see many alternatives.

    Does anyone have recommendations they can share?

      I recommend using a grade and certification that's specified in your owner's manual.

      I've noticed the same. Look out for Penrite, they do a 10W30 which I think is stocked by SuperCheapAuto every now and then.

      Mobil has some alternatives, Valvoline is good too

      Edit: oh actually just noticed the ones I thought were fully syn are actually semi :(

      • Thank u @jrunv

    Thanks yes 10w-30 is the one specified in my manual.. It's a 2000 car, fun fact 10w-30 used to be a lot more common and accessible back then. Nowadays 5w-30 seems to be the mainstream replacing 10w-30.

    Any thoughts?

    • this 5W-30 oil would be fine as it has a SL rating which is good for cars made up until 2004. Google 'API SL rating'

      • Thanks for the knowledge!

        Between two 10w-30 options, would it be better to go for:

        SQ the "latest spec" (but only available in sem-synthetic form).

        Or an SN but in fully synthetic?

        (My 2000 manual asks for 10w-30 and SL)

          I'd say go for the SL, particularly if you can get it cheap right now.

  • just wondering, when i service my car, i can see they have used Castrol Edge Professional OEM 5W-30, is this the same engine oil? if its the same then i would want to pick up for next time so its cheaper.
