    Default Your suggestions?

    I was hoping to get people's opinions on what brands of oil, filters and plugs people recommend for a 308 black motor (stock).

    I've never owned one before and I know which brands I like for my VL 3L (GTX2 for oil, Ryco for filters and NGK for plugs) but would like other opinions on what's best to use in/on the 308 in my VK.

    TIA

    Oils - you can't go past Penrite. HPR15 is a fantastic SM grade oil - best value for money out. Stay away from GTX2 - it's the sludgemaster

    Plugs - standard Bosch or NGK are fine.

    Filters - Ryco is fine
