Shell Helix Ultra.

CCPT uses the same. He changed his oil a few weeks ago and after a few thousand km the oil in the engine still looked the same as when it came out of the bottle and that is on an engine with almost 200000 km.

My vote as well.
More expensive, but worth it for the best protection.

Re:Engine Oil 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
Ok finally got around to doing it

Was going to get some Shell HX7 10w30 but they ran out so I decided to use Nulon 10W-30
www.nulon.com.au/products/10W-30_Hi-Tech..._Flowing_Engine_Oil/

The reason why I went to Nulon is because I'm using some other Nulon oil in my own car and its going well

Anyway

Can anyone tell me what size the sump plug is?

It seems 13mm is slightly too small and 14mm is too big

I manage to get it off with the 13mm with great difficulty because it was on that tight

American cars don't use metric sizes .. 1/2" is the perfect fit ,it'll do the trick .

That didn't fit either

the 13mm and 1/2" are pretty close to the same size anyway

I can only put it down to the head of the plug has been rounded off a bit


Any idea how much it cost to get a new one?
