My First Post
Hi to all,
I'm just after getting my first rx-8 and all i can say is WOW...
I previously had an s2000 and i didn't think the rx-8 was going to be as quick as it is (and i also didn't think i'd be pulling into Petrol stations as much as i do... but it's worth it)
I'm just after checking my oil again and it needs a re-fill. I have searched through the site and read the FAQ and i can't seem to find what oil it should take.
I have a gun metal grey 2004 231 rx-8, can anyone advise me on what oil i should put into it,
thanks in advance

Where do you live? Mazda's recommendations are geographically based.
5w-30 is probably good. If you're in a hotter climate, consider 5w-40 or 10w-40.
5w-20 in the US if you want to emotionally support Ford in their efforts to avoid CAFE fines.
