ditto. stick with the OEM if possible especially since it is under warranty

catrol, the oil that is sitting in my garage with your name all over it

bombardier oil is castrol gtx 10w-40 nonsynthetic oil. Bombardier does not make their own oil. That is who they get it from. They just put it in a different bottle and mark up the price for you to buy. Do not use synthetic oil because it will promote your SC clutch to slip.

Yeah i read something by Geen Hulk that said Castrol GTX 10w-40 is the same thing. So i went to Wal-Mart and got the 5 quart jug for 8.50 !!! I was really glad i read that considering at the motorsport shop i go to the bombardier oil is 7 dollars for one quart. Thanks for everyones input anyway.

Bombardier oil is made by Castrol but it is not the same oil as Castrol GTX. There is a thread at Green Hulks that speaks about it. RX951 did research on it and posted great information about it.

I had also started using Castrol but switched back to Bombardier after reading about the differences. Its a long thread but worth reading.

You paid a lot of $$ for your ski and why chance it.

I too went back to the Bombardier oil after reading that thread on my forum.

Anyone know anything about the yamaha 4M oil?

Dammit and i allready bought the castrol

crap!!!!!!!!!!

Ditto. Much thanks to RX951 for his crack research work. Of course my dealer tried to convince me that I needed synthetic.

Alright thanks a lot for the info people i bougt the castrol but i didnt put it in yet so its all good. olny bad part is that the hole in my wallet is gona be bigger cause that brp oil is rediculouly expensive

give Mobil 1 MX 4T a go. It costs more than the BuRP oil but is synthetic - exceeds JASO MA requirements.

This is one synthetic you can use with the SC's.
