Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that suspect a cause: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suspected cause
10-60 is probably a bit thick for a normal road-going 996, so I'd be inclined to go for 5-40.

It seems fine but I've got my service this month and my indy (CMD, Bridgend) has said that he's started using this stuff (But he's also said that he'll use whatever I want him to) It's either this or Spry - Crisp and Dry.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Hello all! Have any of you ever used Castrol Edge oil? If so, which of the versions of it have you used (which grade 0-40, 5-40, etc) I currently use Castrol Magnatec in my 2003 996 C2. It seems fine but I've got my service this month and my indy (CMD, Bridgend) has said that he's started using this stuff (But he's also said that he'll use whatever I want him to) It's either this or Spry - Crisp and Dry. Thanks.

I'm using it in my GT3 - JZMachtech recommend 10-60 for trackday GT3's so that's what I've gone with. 10-60 is probably a bit thick for a normal road-going 996, so I'd be inclined to go for 5-40. I used that weight in my C4 & it was very happy with it.
