Our own engine oil selection tool is still only on the drawing board, but in the meantime I suggest using the official selection tools for oils and other fluids run by the leading manufacturers: Mobil-1, Castrol, Shell, Aral, Liqui Moly, Teboil, Motul, Lotos.

There you'll be able to pick out oils from various makers that suit your engine, and then make your final choice.
