    C4B engine oil

    Hi everyone, just a quick question on engine oils, I have an 02 GTS now with a C4B in it that was rebuilt to stock specs about 20K ago, is the Castrol Edge 10W-60 still the go for it? I was using it in my CV8 and found it very good.

    You'd be surprised have three of our cars insured with the same insurer & when I rung up recently to haggle the cost of a renewal & sum insured they surprisingly came to the party, have been with them continuously for 20+Yrs & no claims they were very happy to oblige.

    You didn't initially against my advice and subsequently your cam looks like it's done 100000km not 10
