Like 90% of the people in this thread, I have always used Castrol Edge 5w30, and it works like a dream ![]() I get my car serviced every 10,000Kms, because I want to keep it running in good condition. |

Yes that catelog online does say $29.95! Says it's a saving of $11, means regular price is $40? They've always been $60 in my local Super Cheap Autos!? |

WTF, went to the Blenheim Rd store yesterday, and it was sold out. Called the store today to see if they got anymore, girl on phone said no, and she checked the other stores and they're out as well. None of the Super Cheap Autos in Christchurch has Castrol Edge 5W30. |
