May be next round will try out the 300v 15w50.... as over here 10w50 seem not available. give up some HP is better sorry then a bad crank bearing.. haha. will try to cover that with better handling.
also I think I read some where.... it said cos' due to our dual AVCS system the engine may have a lower oil press?
thks again!

Don't worry you won't hurt a thing going even to a 20w50 which I've resorted to along with internal engine mods and more.
The dual AVCS isn't the direct cause it's due to the design of the oiling system in that it's not a "main priority" engine. Search out my thread in "Engine" if you want to know exactly how the oiling system is designed and why it's a problem. In a nutshell your main bearings do not get oil pressure priority, everything shares the same priority (mostly).
