| 4.4 V8 2005 model engine oil recomendation |
|
hi guys,
it is time to change my oil in my 2005 4.4 V8 engine. I see from the manual that LR recomends the use of castrol. i have searched and found out there are two engine oils from castrol that meets LR's specifcations.
These are CASTROL MAGNATEC 5W30
AND CASTROL EDGE 5W30
which engine oil are you using and does anyone know which one is better among those two ?
thank you J.p
