Supercharger oil

[miyage007]

Im wanting to change the supercharger oil but not sure what to use? Do I need to use a specific SC oil for this? Can I use any Full Syn 5w30 or 10w30 engine oil? How much do I put in? What goes out is what goes in I suppose. How often do I need to replace it? Thanks guys.

You have to use specific supercharger oil.
Harrop: 60-SC-OIL-250ML
ACDelco: 10-4041
Eaton: as per image

There's a few brands, I personally use ACDelco. I put in about ~160ml or fill to the opening port as per some documentation.

Not sure how often it's supposed to be replaced.

Thank you Chris for this info. I'll go and hunt for these oils. Hopefully Repco or SCA have any. Thanks.

Never had a vehicle with a supercharger so learnt something new about requiring oil.

I thoroughly endorse the post by Baxter190388 which is based upon his personal experience.

As for the supercharger oil change interval, have a read of this URL.

Depending upon the condition of the used oil, consider repeating the oil change after a short interval e.g. drive around the block, next day or next week. 100K km oil change interval should be OK for normal driving but if more "spirited" then an annual change may be more appropriate.

Just for background information purposes, I found this URL to be useful.`

As a parting comment, I am thinking that the supercharger is more mechanically similar to a transmission or a differential. Therefore, engine oil is highly unlikely to be a substitute for supercharger oil.
