We used to use synta gold in rs2 services, but I believe that's not in production anymore

Thanks for the replies...

previous owner told me that the RS2 engines dont like mobil 1...apparently the engines start to ping on them...(dont know if anyone can verify??) and told me to use original Quantum....

Any further advice/info much appreciated.

Ive regularly use Gulf Competition 5W40 or Fuchs Titan Race Pro 5W40, both from Opie. Change oil and filter every 5k because im anal!
