Title: Engine Oil?
Post by: lingl9z on 06 August 2010, 08:31

I'll more than likely be doing an oil change soonish but until then just wanted to top my level's up a bit.

Which oil should I go for? I've done a search and some say 10w40 semi synth others say diff things. I typed my reg in to the halfords site and it gave me

0w40
10w40
and 15w40 ?

Would this do the trick ?

Im sure the 10w-40 will be just fine. Use whatever is reccomonded for your engine (?). If you have a handbook, or service maual, that will give you an indication. It would be worth sticking to the same priduct when you do an oil change tho....
