Cheapest Oil in SE Melb?

Postby Tenoq » Fri Mar 09, 2007 11:59 am

After some Motul 5100 - where's the cheapest you've seen in Melbourne's SE suburbs? So far the best I've found is $55 for 4L. :P

And from SE Melbourne he would basically spent what he saved or more in petrol and that's not accounting for time either...

A mate has been using caltex heavy duty diesel oil after doing a bunch of research and finding that the base stock is very high quality, high detergent and suitable for bike engines. It's about $35 for 5 litres and he's coming up on his next 5000k change. If anyone's interested I'll post the results but he's been very happy so far.
