I have never used cheap leads before......What can cheap leads cause the car to run like....Could they alter performance and MPG?


Also WadGTI    If you are ever near Milton Keynes I have just under 5 litres of 10/40 semi/synth you can have as I have just got 5 litres of 5/40 fully synth so dont need the 10/40.....Will save you £20 odd quid  :smiley:

Thanks for the offer buddy - got some oil from a mate who works in a garage for free - so worked out all good. But thanks anyway.

I was in warrington, cheshire during the week for a work conference, i should have asked about if anyone on the forum was from here - see what other members golfs can do  :cool:
