Bit of a poll here really but the forum doesn't allow polls so for research purposes.

Which Viscosity oil are you using? (i.e. 0w-40, 15w-50 etc)

And in what car?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers
Guy

0W/40, Mercedes E240 V6. You've told me already I should use a thicker grade.

RS is either 0w-40 or 10w-60, which one is it?
