    Engine: C22SEL

    Current oil: None... :P

    Previous oil: Just bought the car... would have a clue... but last i checked there was some in there...

    Feeling: Annoyed that i let it get that low... but hey... hence my question... what would you use for this engine doing 4000Ks+ a month.... btw... 180ks+ on engine....

    a decent semi-syn 15-40 and change oil and filter every 7.5k.
    04 Astra Sri - Silver - Full red leather interior - mk4 888 wheels - Star light roof lining - lowered - ice - exhaust - vxr brakes - quite a few other things.
    my ride - no longer faster than qlds sri-t's
    OEM+
    04 Astra Linea Rossa - Build thread
