It's a simple question but tried to search and couldn't find an answer. My 1976 manuel says to use SAE 30- API specs "SD or SE". Tried to buy this and found out no one has it. Does anyone know what Porsche has to say and if there was a bulletin issued for the correct oil to use in todays market. Thanks...

I'm going to order a case of Brad Penn 20w50 from LN Engineering, is this the correct weigh? I never drive the car below 32F, really only use it for track events and autocross. I've been using Castrol GTX 10W30 for 2-3 years. Next month I'm going to get my oil temp sensor working in addition to monitoring oil pressure. Is 20w50 the correct weight for my application?
In addition, i'm thinking about switching the oil on my Yukon from 5W30 to 0W30 since the reviews are so great. Is 0W30 too thin for year round use? I live in the northeast, close to nyc. |
