        Why such a thick oil for a cold climate ?

        Using OEM Volkswagen filter, had issues with the MANN filter sticking like super glue....

                Mate Castrol magnatec 10/40 cant beat it mate i swear by it man. I look after a lot o them up here in Brizzy and no dramas with it. We started using the Mobil at Porsche and it caused some dramas but you will have so many conflicting stories about oil mate every one has heard one thing or an other.
                My preference is good ole magnatec
