Good evening everyone! Just interested to see what everyone uses!
I just did mine...
4400km on the oil.....changed it with castrol GTX 5w30 and a 3x fram filter

Ill be changing it around the 3 month period with about the same amount of km's
Have a nice evening!

 

Is this the wrong form for this kinda question?

 

Sixx Dogg.

Not really sure what your looking for.

If you are trying to find out what kind of oil we use, that has been spoke about at least once a month on here.It is now redundant.
The last go round on this was less than two weeks ago.

If you are looking for something else I apologize and don't follow the question.

 

yea...just wanted to see what kind of oil everyone was using....

 

What ever sythetic is on "oil change special" at the local Auto Zone....

Use 5w30..and the filter that comes with the special... Usually a K&N...

 

Yeah....but.... please save us all from yet another oil thread by reading the old ones

 

One thing people consistently argue about on all car forums are the topics of oil and gas. Brands, additives, dino vs synthetic, frequency, etc. They should be banned topics along with politics!

The effects take so long to happen and there are so many other factors involved that I think it's impossible for anyone to truely know what works better than anything else. And forget about people who tell you what happened 20 years ago when they used Brand X, like that has any relevance today. My advice is to buy the proper weight oil, whatever brand is on sale. I use synthetic, I don’t see a downside, there are several potential benefits, and it’s only a few bucks more. Jaguar recommends Castrol because it's something special or because they get a good price in exchange for being "the official oil of Jaguar"?

 

Just an FYI. Moble 1 full syntetic 5w30 is on sale now until May 25th (I think) for like $4.50 a quart at O'reilly's. Not bad.

 

Wow, that's a steal! Good thing another oil thread was started cause if not, I would have missed this !

oh and for me mobil 1 full synthetic 5w30, and a new filter every 5000 miles or 3 months, what ever comes first!

Best Buy has GPS systems on sale this week,Next week Target has Auto DVD players on sale...............on and on and on....lol

oops, forgot to mention(like 10 times before) I only use conventional oil, thats all Jag calls for so I don't waste my dough on the synth stuff unless I want to go 30,000 miles between changes (what its made to do)

 

Don't forget the crowd that loves to quote what they use on 'racing cars'- like that has any relevance either

 

Amsoil 0W30 for my lower mileage engine. Used NAPA gold oil filter. Change oil about every 7-8k miles since I'm running synthetic. Jags have 7 quarts of oil which makes the oil last about 40 percent longer than on a regular 5 qt car.

Almost as important as changing engine oil is making sure that the trans has clear fluid as well. A drain and refill will probably work best at about every 30k.
