    Liqui-Moly Synthoil Premium 5-40?

    Just put this in my 05 Audi 4.2 after 140,000 miles with M1 0-40. Decided to try something different because 3/4 the way thru my 10,000 mile changes the cam chain tensioner rattle with M1 was just getting way too severe on startup. It has a hyd. cam chain tensioner on it so until oil pressure is...

    Any reason not to run Schaeffers 5-40 series 9000

    in my 2005 Audi 4.2 V8 automobile? It appears to be a diesel oil. Any harm in that? The warranty is up (50,000 miles) and the free oil changes every 10,000 miles are done. Might be a good thing as I think the dealer uses 0-40 M1. I think it breaks down too quickly in this engine as I had some...
