LOL...using the recommended 10w60 is definitely a good idea since there are only a handful of companies that make this grade. So yeah, stick with the OEM Castrol TWS.

I am using the REDLINE oil I think its much better the OEM because you can feel a difference of the oil temp climbing slower and dropping faster.
But on the downside its a little bit pricey

Redline makes a 10w-60? I hate it when I miss the memos!

No, unfortunately they don't make 10w-60 synthetic motor oil.
In fact, they don't have anything that's even close... Maybe he was just kidding?

Maybe if you mix 2 bottles of 5w30 together you can use it.....

Please post up that photo of this mystery oil. I'm very interested to see it. It's strange that it's not on their own website... I ran Red Line motor oil in my E36 M3 a looooooong time ago.

So they make it, but nobody's heard of it, it's not on the Red Line's own site, and a Google search for "red line 10w60" or any variation thereof yields nothing.
I'd say if you have pictures you either have photoshop, or a magic marker.

OK, help me out here, you wouldn't want to use 10w-60 in the cold weather right and is this just to top it off, what is in there now, sorry if this is a stupid question but I thought it would screw the engine up if used other than in warm weather, am I wrong?
