Had my 25k service done today and I've been using Fully Synthetic 10w40 oil since my 1k...

Forgot to tell the guys to use Fully Synth oil and they put in Semi Synthetic 10w40 do u guys think that will cause issues, should I change it?


Cheers

Joel

Shouldn't cause any issues at all.... unless you're heading out for a track day sometime soon and will be running the engine at it's limit for extended periods. Change it if you feel you need to for consistency's sake.

I can't believe that they are a 'STI Dealer' and they don't stock Mobil 1...
Do you ever get the left over litre back?

Don't think I'll be going back there after my last experience...
