ghosty · 05-18-2010, 03:30 PM

this might be handy for someone..

i just popped down to halfords to halfords to pick up some engine oil and saw that mobil 1 were doing a 20% a 5 litre bottle. so i picked up a 5l bottle of ESP 5W-30 for 40 quid, bargain i thought.

i usually use castrol edge but a bargains a bargain

Fuchs Titan is the way to go.

i not sure of the technical specs or the science behind it but it is BMW LL04 and VW 507.00 approved. so i take that its the "good stuff", it must be Mobil 1's equivalent to castrol edge i reckon.
