I am planning to change my engine oil and some of my frens suggested that i use Castrol Edge 10W 60.. Has anyone used the Castrol Edge before? If so care to give me feedback on it.. If not does anyone have any better suggestions ?? Your help is much appreciated. Anyway my car is Evo 9 Japanese Domestic Model. Cheers !

 

Castrol makes good oil, but I've never heard of it being used in an Evo.

Use ENEOS 0w50

 

Thanks for giving your opinion Cookie appreciate it.. I will look into the engine oil you recommended

 

Why not the recommended Mobile 1 10w30?

 

True, and why are you guys talking about 50/60 weight oils?

 

The filler cap says Mobil 1 10W-30. That is not a maker's recommendation, that is advertising (by the way, some of the best advertising ever done since most people think it is a recommendation) . The maker recommends pure synthetic 10W-30 and specifies no particular brand of oil.

 

^maybe so, but even still you can't go wrong with mobil 1 10w-30...

 

Mobil 1 or AMSoil only in my opinion

 

I run Mobile 1 10-w30...it works good and I'm never low so I've always just stayed with it.

 

anyone use royal purp?

 

I use mobil 1 because it's 20 bucks at walmart for a 5 quart jug. Hard to beat that.

 

Around me it just went down to $18.99! I use that and a Mobil 1 filter for $9.99.

 

It is good but for the money order some Amsoil. It is better oil and won't turn your engine purple.

 

You also can't go wrong with Royal Purple, if you have the $$.
I go to the dealership to get the factory oil filters and they are priced well at $5.00
a filter. That is 4 dollars less than the Mobil 1 filters. Also the filter includes a replacement seal for the drain plug. A +++++++

 

whats a good weight for the winter? Going to be driving to tahoe a lot this season
