synta silver???
« on: 05 April 2007, 20:18 »
whats the crack with recent price hike (£25ish for 5ltr) I've heard about?? I've read that GSF have stopped stocking it but they are offering a FUCHS 10/40 (titan?) instead.

Anyone confirm what gives???

Another oil needed???? :huh:

I've bought ten litres of Synta silver from GSF in past three weeks no worries so far best go stock up if they're not stocking it anymore :(

My local one (Worthing) is not stocking it any more, and stopped stocking the VAG filters as well.  Now the Mann ones......

Any idea why?!

say.

i bought some of this titan stuff the other day, the guy said it was the same stuff just different packaging, was he lying to me?!"   :angry:
he mentioned that VW were starting to charge more for the synta stuff so GSF weren't stocking it anynmore and this was the same stuff and it could even be mixed
