I went with the Shell Rimula and it has certainly made everything a lot smoother and quieter. Thanks for all the advice.

I use Caltex C3 synthetic which isn't cheap but from the first drive the motor ran a lot quiter and it had more power as well.
Very impressed.
Cheers.

This thread is a little old now but I use Penrite 5W-40 semi synthetic oil in 3l and though change it at 5,000k intervals it remains quite clean compaired to the old 10W-40/ 15W-40 oils I used to use.
