For example SG fleet wont pay for the 7500 changek, only the recommended log book scheduling at 15000k.

I may have been able to tell the guy I wanted it at the start of the lease and budget it in.

does anyone use Penrite 0w50?

I hear you. I have the same issues with them also. Had to argue for a diff oil change at 30K. I pay for my own oil at intermittent service.

Motul 300v 10w40 worth every penny. The Castrol 10w60 breaks down to a 40 anyway if you read oil analysis tests on the net

Totally agree, just went with this for the last service. Done 2000k's and it's going better than the nulon.

5 - 50 in the summer and 0 - 40 in the winter. Castrol edge or Mobil 1, both fully synthetic

I use full bottle of Castrol Edge 0w and top up with Castrol Magnatec to stop the ticking noise works great!

Nulon 10w-40 Full Syn on my BF Tornado..I luv it ...cheaper then other "major" brands, but tends to get a bit dirty once over 7000kms. There are some great reviews on it.

0 - 40 castrol edge or mobil 1 in the winter and 5 - 50 mobil 1 in the summer. Keeps the oil pressure at nice levels and not to high when cold. I cringe when I think of someone giving their car a squirt say to 4000 rpm when the oil is cold with a 10 - 60. When I ran 15 - 40 the oil pressure would go to over 100psi when cold.
