    When Fred@BTM serviced mine recently he used fully synthetic. IMO Fred knows best so I'd go with this. Not sure what brand it was though sorry.

    5w40 Fully synth. Actually most will do but popular are Fuch Titan as above, or the standard Elf evolution, or stick to another decent brand such as millers etc...

    since buying mine ive used millers, elf evo and carlube tripple r all in the 5w40. the engine seemed to run quieter at tickover with the elf, but without comparing side vy side its hard to tell if it really was quieter or just in my head

    I've always used Fuchs titan fully synth, great for the money.
