Hello. Please follow the oil drain intervals determined by the manufacturer. You can find this information in the Owner's Manual or on our website at www.castrol.com/en_gb/united-kingdom/home/product-finder.html and select Oil Search.
I've used this since the last oil change in my 2017 Husqvarna 701 enduro. I've done about 3000km around Spain and Portugal and it ran fine, but has burnt more oil than ever before. I've used the correct 10w-50 4stroke fully synthetic (JASO and MA-2 T903) engine oil but this time used the Castrol Power 1 Racing oil. Is it known to be thinner or burn off more, because it does seem that way? The terrain was fairly challenging in places but the riding temperatures weren't excessive? It's a bit odd.
I put some synthetic car oil in my Yamaha 1200 recently. Only because that is what I had left in the garage. Well after 150 miles; 1. The clutch doesn’t hold, it slips when I really lean into the throttle. 2. The gearbox now has an annoying howl at highway speeds. Just picked up some cheap, but motorcycle specific oil. Will be changed out tomorrow. So yes, I concur - do not put car oil in your motorcycle ; unless perhaps your mb is low power
Do you thread the dipstick back in to get a proper measurement of your oil level or do you leave it unthreaded and just place it back down in the hole and then pull it back out
It can be very dangerous to use oil additive as you are doing. I will tell you the truth. In the normal oil, there is an additive package that has been carefully put together by experts after a lot of research. When you add an oil additive, it can often destroy the oil additive that is in the normal oil so it does not work so well. And the two oil additives can start to work against each other and become unstable. This can damage your engine. Too much of a good thing can quickly become a bad thing. I have this from one of the best oil experts on RU-vid! RU-vid (The Motor Oil Geek) If You LOVE One Of These Additives, DON'T Watch This Video!
Hello. Oil change intervals are determined by the vehicle manufacturer and we always recommend following these. If the manufacturer suggests the oil needs changing after 12 months then I would suggest you do this even if you have not covered the mileage stated. Short journeys can be harder on the oil, so changing the oil sooner is beneficial to the engine as short journeys can increase the build up of acidic by products in the oil which can affect the performance and protection.
can you confirm if CASTROL produce the GENUINE HONDA motorcycle oils 10W30 API SL MA for Europe market ? and if yes... what is the advanced alternative one ?
Hi there, Andreas. Thanks for getting in touch with us. In order to provide the best answer we need some more information from you. Could you please share your motorcycle type and model, engine type, horsepower and year of production with us, please. Thank you.
Between F and L ? That’s crazy. Full is at F. If the engine uses some oil you can be save at “between” F and L. Just fill it up to F, and a little to much doesn’t hurt your engine. It’s actually realy hard to mess up your engine with to much oil. Couse you need to fill it up all the way. And then you pored Liter to much in it. And that will never happen. As long as there is enough room for the oil to move. Then you never blow up your engine. It’s mostly over reacted. So a little over Full, no problem. Poring another Liter in. Then it’s questionable 🤨.
I don't know about any extra power, but I've tried many oils on my air/oil cooled gsxr, both power 1 and power 1 racing make my gearchanges really slick, so I keep using them.
Hello, Thank you for contacting us. I understand you are asking about using different specifications. It's important to use the right oil and the specification is critical as some oils may not be suitable. As this is a little too advanced for me to answer, please contact our Technical team on Technical-Support@Castrol.com. They will be able to discuss your needs and advise if you can use other specification products in your application. Thanks, Team Castrol 😊
I have a 20 year old car i recently switched to castrol magnatec 20w50 my car does not smoke anymore the dealer recommends a 10w30 or 10w40 for our hot climate which is in the caribbean is it safe to switch to a 10w40
What a load of bollocks. Google Castrol vs. Exxon lawsuit where Castrol bastardized the meaning of the word synthetic to apply to highly processed mineral oil. Now you know Castrol doesn’t really use PAO.
I used car engine oil 5W30 fully synthetic in my scooter, but the performance was reduced, less torque and the vibration was unusual, next day i changed the oil specified for scooter 10W40 Semi-synthetic oil(Shell advance). The vibration was was normal, and the Torque was good.

Hi there, we recommend using our oil selector tool to find out which of our oils is right for your vehicle. Alternatively, you can review the vehicle's Owner's manual for this information. Oil selector tool: on.bp.com/3MnCgCX
Honda Express NC50 1979, just got it & I've no idea what petrol, what oil in oil tank & what oil in the gearing/sump. Don't want to get it wrong, any advice please.
I accidentally put way too much engine in my car and then BiG buff of blue smoke and then a loss of power. I pulled over straight away. So iv not driven at lenth like this, but im bricking it now, lol Do I simply need to reduce the oil level, or is this a sign of more damage. Any advice most appreciated. Is there a clear indicator that something else is wrong after this that I should watch/listen out for? Thank you
My Toyota Camry oil is gauged and there's no leakage. V4 XLE and I use Mobil 2000 Semi-Synthetic. The oil pump has been changed and it's still bringing the same alert on my dashboard
I did put a bit more than needed. Try to remove it with a syringe and got it stuck in the engine. When I tried to pull the pipe it broke. Was lucky enough to pull it out with a needle nose. Still scared that there are plastic debris inside the engine case.
