Hi everybody.
I need to know what Motor Oil to use in my Sud. The manual calls for 10w50
and there isn't any in the US. What do you guys recommend?
Same for brake fluid.
Thank you
Paolo

I know this may be a little over the top but I use Castrol RS 10/60...I used to use Selenia 20K 10/40...but then, I think mine's going to be a little more stressed than yours

...

According to Haynes a 10/40 wt is fine if it's good quality

As for the brake fluid, it really depends what's available... a good quality Castrol (DOT 4) would be my choice for a road car !!
