i haven't changed my oil since i bought my car a while ago so i think i'd better give it a service. Just wondering what the best type to use is ie. synthetic, semi synthetic or a good quality non synthetic? cheers

I read the whole article. Surely you are not going to maintain your myth theory after reading that? Just so you know, its ok to be wrong. It happens to me all the time. When I am wrong, I just admit it and go on. No big deal!

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
