Hey, S-Folks!
OK, so now that my trim strip adventure is over (not much of an adventure -
took me all of about 10 minutes) I must think about changing this beast's
oil soon. I have read a lot about oil, used to work in a refinery, and have
used Mobil 1 full synth on all my VW/Audi cars for the last 15 years. But
turbo cars are different. The guy that owned it previous to me used 15W50
synth (no brand mentioned.) So, the question:
What brands of synth comply with the VW/Audi oil standard, and what
viscosity would be good for a place that gets up to 100 degrees in the
summer, and down in the single digits in winter? Any of my Spokane brethren
reading? Bueller?
BTW, the local Wally World has 15W50 in big 5-quart jugs. And I like big
jugs.
Thanks, guys,
Eric.
