  4. Heard good things about this oil good bang for your buck. Put nulon 10w- 40 in the g6et after 45000km of magnatec and it seems noisier with the nulon and not as smooth. Might go back to magnatec or try the durablend or royal purple.

    I queried ford as my FG idled at 550rpm and the ford fg workshop manual was higher cant remember 650 of 700rpm. They told me there was a update that dropped the idle to the 550rpm + or- 50rpm fuel and emission reasons.
