Im planing on servicing the car every 6000 miles, so its now due for an oil change... Fully synthetic oil etc... As im not an experienced gt4 owner,
What else needs changed when i do this?? Does the oil filter need changed etc?? Thanks guys --------------------  |

What oil should you use?? Phoned Toyota and they said they would change the oil and filter for £40/$80. When i asked what oil it was they said semi-synthetic.. I thought you had to use Fully-synthetic. i got 5w/40 in right now

But dino oil will go bad faster than full synthetic. I only use full synthetic in my car. -------------------- _Gary

Oh right, cos they reccomended 10w/50 i think.... its cheaper for me to get them to do it... ill give it a shot in the future when i get my garage built!! -------------------- |
