    I just purchased my Saleen 2 months ago and I am wondering do I just get a regular oil change or do I need to get a "special" one. I was formerly kick851056 until the forum went kaboom. Thanx for the help guys

    you dont have to get any special oil. Any oil will work. However, I reccomend Mobil 1 5w30, that is what I use just like s281er238.

    Make sure you fill it with enough oil. Most the last model 4.6's take 6qts. Check your dip stick.

    The thing is i do not change my own oil. When I bring it to a place and use the oil they use is that okay.


    I work 85+ hours a week no time for me to do an oil change.

    Thanx Guys.

    Wow,

    I hope you don't have to wear a little hat and a respirator in the mines. :D

    You would think that at one of those oil change places does what they do well, but most of the time they don't. Just stay on top of them and check the level yourself before you leave.

    how about working less hours and getting a car that is not so expensive instead of working so many hours just to have a Saleen at a young age. :shrug:
