Recommended Syntetic Oil for 4AT
« on: May 22, 2008, 03:49:13 PM »
Hi all,

Any recommended syn oil for 4AT that gives good FC based on your experience? I am hitting 10K soon. So far my FC at most is 11 kml (50% highway; 250 kpa for front tyres, 230 for rear tyres; mostly below 250k rpm). Thanks....

I asked the guy who is selling Amsoil, its ok tho. Silent and response is fast, but better to go for 30w if you want. Im still trying out on this 20w before I switch to 30w.  :D

Just did my 1000km servicing today. Realise that TCM offer Shogun syn oil. Not sure how much you need to top-up.

I thought TCM always use Fastlo oil? They usually give mineral oil until 10k service. Did you ask for amsoil? They always gave me fastlo
