Anyone used Shell Advance Ultra?

Fully synthetic but supposed to be fine with wet clutches (I presume that's the only reason Fully Synthetic is not recommended for the VTR)

Just done an oil change but I'll probably try it next time.

£32.99 delivered with a filter, not too bad.

Maybe worth trying if you have a grabby clutch? Seems like oil makes quite a difference and would explain why some suffer and some don't

I'll wait for someone else too try it first, mines due a change I put castrol power 1 in last time and was very pleased with it the gearchange was insantly slicker and its kept its colour. I also did the coke can filter protector as recomended on here.
IMHO I don't think that the clutch grab issue is oil related, my clutch was exactly the same after oil change (previous oil was terible condition, must have been in for years), I've learnt to live with it via the old man style getaway. But would welcome a resolve to clutch grab, I thought TM had sorted it with his last attempt but he says it has not made any difference to the affected test clutches.
