I have thought about HDEO's like Rimula but they are not easy to get and pretty prices when you find them, in fact the Mobil 1 TD is cheaper and easier to find.

Hey guys, I did a search before posting but I couldn't find anything so here goes. Just aquired a Volvo 740 with the 2.4 six cylinder VW turbo engine. Its covered 250,000, rebuilt 230,000. The sump takes six litres. I have no idea what it has previously been run but have been 'recommended'...

2007 Seat Ibiza. Dealer added VW Quantum (Castrol) synth 5w40 + mystery filter (oil had done about 10k) Flushed with Valvoline Pro Series engine flush and Refilled with Mobil 1 New Life 0w40 and a Hengst filter. I am seing an improvement in economy and much better cold starts. I left that 5w40...

Your not far wrong guy, I wish I lived in France

Check the location dude, we don't have Syntec in Europe, Castrol over here do their own XL 20w50 mineral for classic cars.

Those levels are what, about on par with a more modern SM oil?

They do of course sell Mobil 1 and Mobil Super, Comma is I would guess their UK budget arm and this oil in particular is for the classic market. The general feeling here is the 'modern' oils can harm classic engines. I disagree but a lot of people believe this here hence the market for 'classic'...

I think I saw that the can has a plastic pour spout inside the screw cap, worst oil for mess is the 5 litre bottle if amsoil I have, shallow cap + no spout = mess. Price wise its cheaper than the premium classic oils such as Millers, Penrite or Castrol.

Just checking out an oil a friend of mine is using http://www.commaoil.com/productsguide/view/6/262 Comma oil are a long established blenders at the budget end of the scale here and owned by ExxonMobil. A lot of guys use this oil as its also the house blend for Halfords who are our motor...

Cheers Pablo and I've already found a UK seller for this product.

This sounds like cool stuff, maybe I'll try it out in old Bug

I can't talk for that guy but from my point of view as a European, American oil is cool
