Seen this. Considering using it in the VE. I just wish it was the 10w as this is a bargain price on full syn.

If its a bargain, go for it,
As I would never know
Personally, I will "never" shop a Autobarn, as long as I am alive.
They can stick their oil where the sun don't shine, hope they enjoy it too.

I shop wherever I get the best price. $36 for 10L of oil is a bargain. The best I have done so far is $96 for 10L and that was the cheapest I've seen until now.

I'm running 10w so I think I will wait and hope 10w comes on special at some point.

It sounds good, go for it,
But with Autobarn, I have the fire wall up on them.

Diesel oil is not really suitable for a high performance LS.

Run a Diesel Oil in your viscosity,
Its heaps better,
I have been running diesel oil in the Adventra, and its slowly cleaning the engine up,
You should of seen the CRUD in the filter at the 1,500k service.

Fair enough. I used them for my audio and reverse camera installations as they were by far the cheapest. I don't buy a lot from them but if I see something decent at a decent price I buy it from wherever.

Thats only if you use it as a High Performance Vehicle,
I am Using a Diesel 5w-40 in my L77, and the oil is still ok.
