    Im going to drain and change my oil tonight.

    What oil do people suggest for a 16v 4age?

    Car is also fitted with a very good oil cooler. So temperatures don't get too hot, I guess I can run some thinner oil??

    Nothing rediculously expensive please

    Im using Shell helix plus eco 10 {10-30}


    The bottle weighs less than what I usually use on the 4ac (normal shell plus) and it feels like theres a power increase, also it only costs $35 for 5ltr's.

    Yeah I used motul turbolight on my 4age, I think its 10-40w...
    Only noticed a small difference in revving up high but the oil pressure was always good and it didnt burn any so I was happy =)

    I personally recommand "Fully" synthetic oils.... not mixes... they dont burn... better properties... but generally more expensive... If your in Queensland... good idea to get an oil with up to 50W rating... better for the hot climate...
