    Oil

    Hi guys. Just wanting to know what oil people are running in their 3.8L N/A ecotecs? Currently I’m running 15w40 full synthetic in my VY and I’ve tried a few other grades, and I’m noticing off a cold start it’s got a fair old rattle going and it seems to take about 5-10 seconds to build oil...
