Morning all - just received a Eurocarparts email informing me they're doing 50% off all oils today. So far I've read that Fuchs Titan Race Pro 5W-40 is the best bet for an R26 - I've already got 6 litres of this sat in my garage. But, I'm always one for a bargain, so their choices of 5W-40 oil are: Castrol Edge FST Mobil One 3000 X1 Shell Helix Ultra http://www.eurocarparts.com/engine-...673424218731314539908213057397130068644779565 Anyone have any thoughts\experience of running these in an RS Megane - I've always been of the opinion that premium brand, fully synthetic oils are probably much of a muchness, but happy to be proved wrong!
Personally id just buy genuine Renault elf from Renault parts direct, £32 for 6l and a genuine oil filter is cheap enough as it is.
The Elf OE oil is semi synthetic whereas the Renault RN0700/0710 spec Helix Ultra that I bought is fully synth but was only £18 for 5l on offer a few weeks ago, not sure how that compares to the 50% deal though.
Ultra Helix is £19.80 on ECP with the 50% deal - not a million miles apart, and good to know that it's not particularly unusual to find it at a reduced price!
