My VN Commodore!

[pro_gmh]

Hey everyone, as some ppl might know i have had a few commodores the most recent being a VH SL.
I have gone through 3 commodores this year a VL Exec, VH SL and now a VN. I have had a bit of a rough goin with my commodores, bein defected an all but finally i have a VN - my first V6 whoo hoo! The VH feels like a "new car" to me compared to my VL and VH well it is and its also more powerfull.

A bit bout my VN...
Im pretty sure its a Series 1 (well i assume) 1989 VN Commodore Executive
Air Conditioning
Power Steering
Everything is standard!!!! its killing me!
308,000 Kms

There are a few things i have noticed bout this VN.
Like the "Executive badge is on the opposite side to what it usally is.
The boot lid doesnt stay up by its self.
The bonnent hinges are totatly different what ive seen on other VN's.
She does look pretty low for standard and she is sitting on 14's.
And last thing i have noticed it the exhaust tone is different to other VN's

Question...
What oil should i be using for this VN with this much kms?

[Z()LTAN]

definetly a high viscosity oil use penrite 20w 60 its the best, i dont think ull have to go for 15w just yet

[pro_gmh]

High viscosity, thats thin oil right? im not an oil expert, but is 15w gettin lower or higher viscosity?
Do you need a higher or lower viscosity as the engin gets more milage? also is that a synthertic oil?

[Z()LTAN]

no thats thick oil, u need thick oil in older engines to coat and to fill in all the little gaps lol, dont use synthetic their for high performance newer cars that specify them

[Z()LTAN]

i think 5w is the thickest u can get but thats for sub zero eurpean cars, 20w 60 penrite for 30 dollars will b perfect
