Castrol Sportz 0W-40 only, for me!
I currently use the factory oils for the MPS, but in my old SSS I used to only run Mobil 1 until I got onto NEO Racing stuff, after that never turned back...

I recently changed to Castrol Edge 0W-40 and so far I have noticed that it runs 1-2 degrees cooler than the stock Mazda oil.
I use Shell Helix Ultra 5-40.
Everyone's going to give you different answers based on their own personal preferences. Best to try out different ones and see which one you like.
is the mazda oil a fail?
Motul 300V 0W-40
or royal purple.
never tried redline but have heard good things
I have been using Motul Xcess8100 5W-40.
It's a shame more mechanics in Australia don't use Agip. In europe its renowned for being used in Ferrari's and F1 cars. My mechanic is one of very few in Australia that import it, many simply won't because it costs a bit extra.
Well that's the thing.
I'm not the most mechanically minded.
So I wouldn't know what to be 'feeling' for.
I was just curious of what you guys were using because I want to keep this car forever lol I love it so much. So I wanted the best for it lol.
Thanks for all the reply's peeps!
I paid about $120 for the oil change in my van.
I use Nulon 10w-40. Full synthetic. $65 & you can get it in 6L.
With so many cars these day having extended sevice intervals & large volume sumps , its suprising that more oils dont come in 6L......just another way for oil companies to rip us off i suppose!!!
the motul i use is 110 for 4L and i need 6.5L for the xr5.
best oil i have ever used though.
