Best oil

[Stroker]

Hi

I know this topic was well covered on the "old" forum, but what is the best engine oil to use in the 3.2 NP Diesel for oil changes, between dealer services

Thanks in advance

Delo 400 seems to be ok. Just done over 8000km (including a number of 4wd tracks and the simpson desert) - sounds as sweet (smooth startup and revving/running) in the DiD as the day I put it in...

Has anyone run synthetic in their DID?

I tried synthetic - it used 1L per 5000km.

I recommend blends
15W-40, CD to CI range, B3/4 or E3 or above with JASO additive package.

Ok - thanks for sharing your experience re the synthetic and for giving me the figures - I was considering running Caltex Delo 400LE at $96 per 20L drum, however it does not seem to have the additive package. Looks like Delo 400 multigrade might be the go.

Sorry I should have said

Delo 400 Multigrade

Fuchs - ULTRALUBE 1540, also supply it to dealer for 15,000km dealer services - just hope that they use it in MY engine!

Fuchs' claim TITAN ATF 95LE is suitable for auto trans. - anyone tried it?
