Many people reckon the K16 starts ticking and clicking whenever Castrol Magnatec's used. It seems to be something other than mass imagination, though I've never used it myself. So, it appears certain oil formulas can cause some engines to become noisier. It's basically a matter of suck it and see. The vital thing is to ensure your choice meets MGR's oil specs. This isn't difficult these days, since the criteria applied are pretty old hat.
