      I just tried it on some roof racks which are already 25% off and at checkout, with the coupon it is taking a further 25% off the discounted price. So it seems it could be selective???

    10Tenths 10w-60 is never cheap :D

    • JimB on 15/11/2016 - 17:08

      What engines requires 10w60?

      Off the top of my head, only the BMW M engines spec it.

      • MasterScythe on 15/11/2016 - 17:17

        My EJ20 in my WRX.
        0.18thou PTW clearance, and around 3thou bearing clearances on both crank and rods.
        Sees 24psi of boost, with 264* cams

        EDIT: and as a side note, BMW dont actually spec it…..
        If you look at the viscosity of the recommended brands "60w" it's more like a VERY thin 50w, or thick 40w.

        My mate has a BMW, and I had to help him find a correct viscoscity oil for VENOS to work properly.

        • JimB on 15/11/2016 - 17:22

          BMW specs 10w60 for their M cars.

          On the regular BMW engines it's 5W30.

          I believe you're referring to VANOS.

        • MasterScythe on 16/11/2016 - 09:59

          @JB1:

          On a user level, I'll agree with you. The Manual does indeed have the numbers "10w60" written in it.

          However, when you look at the viscosity of the recommended brand, and compare that to the viscosity of other oils (at the standard 40C and 100C), most 60 weights are about 25% thicker than the recommended.

          Keep in mind how broad a range the 'API standards' allow for.

          Trust me on this one; I spent about 11 hours with an oil temp gauge, pressure gauge, and spent about $350 in a week on oils.

        • JimB on 16/11/2016 - 10:13

          @MasterScythe:

          I'd like to clarify something.

          Previous you mentioned that 'the viscosity of the recommended brands "60w" it's more like a VERY thin 50w, or thick 40w.

          Then you also say 'most 60 weights are about 25% thicker than the recommended'.

          Don't these two comments contradict each other?

          BMW originally recommended 5W30 for the E46 M3, after a few engine failures they then switched to 10W60! lol

        • MasterScythe on 16/11/2016 - 10:36

          @JB1:

          You're welcome to clarify, I think you've just misread :)

          No, they don't contradict each other at all.
          Saying their recommended brands 60W (I believe it was castrol?) is much thinner than other brands 60W's; would suggest that other brands 60W's, would be thicker than recommended. (as stated)

          The thick oil choice, and specifically, the brand, makes sense based on how quickly it Shears; anything with that broad of a range begins to shear VERY quickly, to about 18cSt, sometimes lower.
          There's a lot of good discussion about that Castrol specifically on BITOG forums.
          As you'd know, 18cSt@100*c is thick40\thin50 viscosity.

          I believe BMW are smart enough to pick their oils based on what they'll remain for the majority length of the fill, not at what it is for the first 1000kms.

          I'm at work right now so can't find the data myself, but if you can find me the standards and viscosity at temp of the factory fill, I'll happily find you a suitable replacement.

          If you're as much of an oil nerd as I am, my advice is to call BMW Germany.
          They have a LOT more information they'll help you with, They're quite forthcoming, and when I called them a few months back, they had a few English speaking staff.
          Have a chat about Moly and Phosphorous levels (most people focus on Zinc) in Oils with them; they're very knowledgeable.

        • JimB on 16/11/2016 - 11:58

          @MasterScythe:

          OK, I gotcha, it is Castrol.

          So what you're saying is that Castrol's 10W60 for BMW is more 10W45 (45 being inbetween 40 and 50)?

          I'm not that much of a nerd, but fascinated with what goes into my engine. Hell, I don't even have a BMW M car.

          I do know the Germans are more picky on their oils, and fully synthetic oils in Germany must be Group IV base.

        • MasterScythe on 16/11/2016 - 13:48

          @JB1: Precicely.

          When you pour the 10w60 Castrol, it's a thin, but still (juuuuuust) within spec, 60w oil.
          However, as with all multigrade oils, the second you run it, it begins to shear. Even group4 can shear (I'm waiting for Penrite to get in trouble for "Shear free technology" branding……)
          And the castrol shears QUICKLY, and A LOT.

          It's why a 25w-60 oil will be more…. 'reliable'…. than a 10w-60 oil, over the drain interval.

          It's also why things like lawnmowers ask for a single-grade oil. Long drain intervals, and a semi-constant load at all times. They can't have it shearing. (multigrade is always better, but shorter drains!).

        • JimB on 16/11/2016 - 13:58

          @MasterScythe:

          Thanks champ, I didn't know that an oil that has a smaller range of viscosity when hot/cold is less likely to shear. You learn something new everyday.

          Most of my cars I run 5W30, I've just switched to 5W40 in my 2006 Golf GTI because this engine consumes oil like it's going out of fashion since 100,000km.

          I started reading BITOG years ago, but there was way too much information and some of it went over my head, I'm not ashamed to say it. End of the day I use what ever spec is recommended and I then sleep well at night.

          I always bring my own oil to the mechanic, some mechanics are a bit blase about using the correct oil and just use that 200L drum of 5W40 for every single car that comes in.

        • MasterScythe on 16/11/2016 - 14:26

          @JB1:

          Honestly, in Australia, where for most of us we never see below 5*C, 10W-40 should always be the 'go to'.

          There are very few conditions where the engine needs thinner oil, as opposed to companies trying to report a better fuel figure.

          example;
          Honda DC5 in USA = 0W-20
          Honda DC5 in AUS = 5w-30
          From my testing (I own one)
          Honda DC5 best oil pressure = HPR 5 (5w-40)

          You can run a 5w, but keep in mind, that's a "large spread" to shear between if you do 10'000km intervals. at 5000kms I wouldn't be as concerned.

          When you consider that the only things that determines oil thickness choice, are bearing clearances.
          THEN, you realise that engines such as the long running EJ20 from Subaru, or the B series from Honda (or the newer K series) run about 1thou of clearance, you quickly realise that a lot of companies are specifying thinner oils, not because they protect as well, but because they save fuel, and cars have a 'timer' hanging over their heads these days, an expected obsolescence.

          I have a few rule of thumb notes:

          1. 10w Is thin enough for cold.
            The ONLY reason to go a 5W or a 0W is if you dont let the car warm up somewhat before driving.
            Ideally you should idle till the needle begins to move (usually 45 seconds in most cars) then you're good to drive calmly until at full temp, then hammer at will.

          2. I always run one thicker grade than specified
            If, using the above example, 18cSt@100*C thickness oil is 'fine' and recommended, how can I be SURE the company tested it at 12cSt after it shears?
            (within reason) about all a 'too thick' oil can do, is use the pumps bypass valve a lot more, heat the oil, and…. yep… make it shear down. So you'll end up in an OK thickness anyway.

          3. Avoid "Magic tech" in oils.
            About the only addition to recent oils that seems to have any affect is Moly. "Magnatec" forms sludge, "Titanium Technology" doesn't have titanium in it, Mobil1 CONSTANTLY rate oils OUTSIDE the API the fall into…. etc etc.

          Honestly, if I need a good cleaning oil (full detergent, as they call it) Shell HX range.
          If I need a general purpose Oil, 10w-40, no matter the car
          If it's done a few KM's, and I intend to keep it long term, Penrite HPR10, 10w-50.
          I've never had a bad UOA from it yet.

          It's worth trying a UOA, they're about $30 total, and you learn quickly what your engine does or doesn't like.

        • JimB on 17/11/2016 - 10:19

          @MasterScythe:

          Thanks for the info.

          You're right, thinner oils are spec'd for fuel economy. I'm not surprised to see manufacturers recommending 0W20 oils these days.

          I must admit like 99% of people, these days I start the car and then drive off moderately with no time for warm up. Because of this, maybe a 5Wx oil suits me better than a 10Wx oil. Of course, I only hammer it after 10 mins or so, even if the gauge says it warmed up after 5 mins.

          OK, so now I don't feel too bad about using 5W40 in my GTI over 5W30. But next time I'll try 10W40.

      Interested to know how it goes.

      No manuals ever state whether the pumps etc are made of brass (which seems to be the only way they actually last), and this lack of information and reviews is why I haven't committed $400 to a pressure cleaner.

    I think I may have found the issue, single items over $100 in value (ie an item over $100 or multiples of the same item to a value over $100) are qualifying. Differing items in the cart totaling over $100 aren't.

        Either will do the job.

        I firmly believe that all fully synthetic oils will perform the same (assuming same weight oil) unless:
        - you have a diesel where you require a low ash spec.
        - you are tracking the car or driving an extra high performance car.
        - you have an extra long service interval, i.e. 20k

        If the above doesn't apply to you, then any 5w30 brand synthetic oil will be more than adequate.
