Re: What`s this? Another Oil Question?!
Do you really need 504.00/507.00 spec oil? 10w40 semi synthetic would be good enough for your motor.

KYB suspension
Hi gents
Any of you used Kyb shocks or coil springs?
They are half of the price compared to oem stuff, and cheaper than Sachs. It comes with 24 months warranty as well. So just thinking how good is their stuff.
Any comments appreciated
Thanks
