Title: Cheap Oil
Post by: 16MPG on 03 February 2008, 15:31

Hello All,

I don't know if anyone has seen this, I was at Costco yesterday with the Wife and noticed they have Castrol edge 5-30W (VW stuff) for £9 + VAT  :wink:

Is that good for the Ed30 also? I'll be doing about 20k a year so will prob need a couple of cans!

Just make sure it states "VW 504/507" on the back of the container as this is the 'good' stuff.

Saw this on another thread :

The longlife oil for the GTI is the Castrol Edge 5W30 Full Synthetic

so £32 to have all your oil replaced and new oil filter too  :smiley:
