Red Line oil

Hi guys, just wanna share my experienced. today i just changed my engine oil with Red Line (10W40), and its perfect. at 1st i dont expect with the oil change i can feel a noticeable different, but the facts is i can feel more power and torque at the high rev,and its noticeable. i start to feel the gain and power start at around 4000 Rpm. also my engine run smoother, the acceleration become more smooth and powerful at every rpm, reduce engine vibration.hope this info can help you guys.

The Red Line oil doesnt sale in 5L. They sale per bottle/1 L, so i bought 4 bottles and cost me $33/Bottle.

What oil is a good oil to use in the euro without going over the top? :S
23-08-2007, 08:45 PM
EuroAccord13

Motul 8100 X-Cess....

Castrol Edge......

Both are good oils without breaking the wallet like 300V or Redline...

The shop owner also said that for accord euro, we only need 4 bottles (4 L) for the engine oil and its enough for accord euro.

This redline oil is at the same level as 300V. It's ester-based and that is the reason it is expensive.

I know a guy who imported them directly from US in bulk, hence he can sell to me cheap. Let me know next time when you want to change your oil, I can sell them to you. But give me at least 4 weeks notice, the redline oil is very famous and is a fast turn around commodity LOL

MOD: sorry if this is against the rule, you may delete this post if it is.

Your engine will feel better after an oil change if you were using crap oil or a wrong viscosity previously. LOL

Red Line oils are good.

I just wish my Bum-o-meter was that sensitive. Come to think of it, I am glad its not. :zip:

Certain oils don't last long. My dealer was using Magnatec 10w-40 mineral oil first the first 2 oil changes. By the time I had driven 7000km, the engine would start becoming rough. After an oil change with fresh Magnatec, the engine would be smooth again. I switched to Castrol Formula R (now Edge Sport) and the engine stayed smooth past 7000km.

Look at the link I sent.
Its about 18.90 a bottle, and they send it straight to your door.
You pay shipping but because I order a dozen quarts each time, shipping is only a couple of dollars more per bottle.

I think you may want to consider buying another bottle and topping it up as redline oils don''t actually come in a 1L bottle they actually come in a 1qt (quart) bottle so that in litres is 0.9464

Remember the euro normally has anywhere from 4.5litres of oil to 4.8litres.

Make sure your car is on flat, level ground, open your bonnet and pull out the dipstick. Wipe it clean with clean tissue/cloth and put it back in fully. Pull out again and read the level. If you are below the maximum, then get another bottle to top up to max. Between minimum to the maximum level, it is about 800ml to 1 litre.

I'm sure you'll need another bottle as the Euro needs approx.4.7ltrs.if you change the filter which you should do every time you change your oil.

usually euro takes close to 5L, so I recommend you get 5 bottles.
