Where can I get Mobile 5/30 Oil ??
Discussion
Mobil 1 5w-40 is not readily available in the UK and has to be imported. GM dealers including those selling the Monaro (LS1 engine) all use Mobil 1 0w-40 which you can buy anywhere. GM have confirmed to me that is ok to use.
You can buy the correct viscosity made by other manufacturers. Your choice.

All a pointless con IMO. Strange how they all recommend some stupid viscocity that Halfords don't sell isn't it.....(rubs chin)
I use Halfords own brands,i used to use Mobile1 then heard of others using halfords fully syn at a much lower price,even drag race with it and with no problems at all,ive had no problems.
Just lately ive been going to Kwickfit,they can do a Fully syn change for around £39.95 but you supply the filter,worth checking out in your town.

Cheers for the tip Cliff. I'm due for a filter and change, having a lazy arse period and can't be bothered with jack up/axle stands/drain pan/ blah blah blah.. I'll check it out.
