I use Amsoil AMO10W40 which is PAO/Ester based full synthetic. Car has 476rwks, it is raced often and it's used as my daily (600klms a week) I run it on eflex which is e70 and have tested the oil a couple of times after 10,000klms of use. The oil has passed the tests every time. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91765-what-oil-to-use-fg-xr6t/#findComment-1583102 Share on other sites More sharing options...
