Changing from semi synthetic to fully synthetic engine oil?
« on: 25 March 2009, 20:39 »
I'm going to change to a fully synthetic 5w-40 engine oil for a bit more protection..
I've always used the GSF semi 15w-40, but can anyone tell me if it's gonna need flushing right out before the new stuff goes in, please?  :undecided:
