New oil question!!!
I recently bought a car from a non porsche dealer who said they changed the oil before delivery. I beleive them since it was perfectly clean on the dip stick. I drove it for about 500 miles like this.
I had no idea what brand or weight they put in but I would guess it was cheap and available at the time. I went ahead and changed it to Castrol Syntec 5W40 and noticed some differences. I now have WAY more blue smoke on cold startup. I also notice a lot more clatter on startup after the car sits for a few days. I really had no or very little smoke on startup and with the old oil it seemed to make less noise on startup. The positives are it seems to run a lot quieter once warmed up. Any ideas if there is a comprimise to limit the clatter but still keep the smoothness once warm? |
