i use the 0w40 fst titanium for 3000 km .i dont know if i like that oil. the engine is more noisy.
i used in the past the torco oil and i think was better.
maybe i will try it one more time but the 10w60 for summer period

I also use the 0W-40 FST ti, it's a true fully synthetic unlike the hydro cracked 5W-40 version.
Funny thing it's actually has a slightly higher viscosity than the 5W-40.

I ordered some castrol edge 5w-40 FST as recommended on the forum, and i have been sent castrol edge Titanium FST instead, does it matter? it will be mixed with 1 litre of none titanium for a full oil change.

These:

What i ordered, and what i already have 1 liter of



What i actually received:



from what i can the one i received seems to be cheaper to buy
