Hello all, My oil is a little lower than i want on my e6. Im putting her in for a service soon but have a son due on tuesday so need to keep my car close to hand for a quick rush to hospital if needed. Could anyone recommend the perfect oil and filter to use?, ill give her a quick DIY Oil and filter change just to keep her running smooth until baby arrives! So gonna need to do it asap  Thanks, Neil

I swear by Silkolene Pro-S. I use 5w-40, but I don't know what weight is best for an evo. Shoot Opie Oils a message ( http://www.opieoils.co.uk/) They will recommend an oil & weight for your car. Also..If you sign up, you get club discount

I'm glad this is following the line of most oil threads Basically...The oil matters little, what matters most is how often you change it

Another Silkolene Pro S club member here, but fully agree with the above statement! (as longs as its a decent engine oil and not that which you use in your chain saw...)
