Magnatec is pish, I wouldn't put it anywhere near my car :!:


You've searched; you've came to 5W-40: correct...now keep searching...I'll give you a clue; Oilman just ended an offer on it for a good price of £38 ;)

i did find it difficult to find which oil when i needed a top up too... search doesn't bring up anything too specific... if you type in 'which oil' you get no matches and 'recommended oil' the top matches are about skiing, induction kits, this topic and my recently created topic. It was difficult to find for me too.

Lol, funny how people get funny about what oil to use.

I think honda uses 5w30, but i thought i heard somewhere they also use 0w30...i wouldnt use that since it's very thin.
My advise is Silkolene Pro S 5w40, but u can also take 5w30 or 10w40
just make sure it's full sythetic!!

and trust me now magnatec, it's crap!!
