Oil light on after 8100 miles
« on: 20 February 2008, 18:56 »
Hi Guys, need some advice.

I have the Highline display and the oil symbol pinged at me today after 15 miles "play" with an old Renault Clio Williams (remember them!?)

Obviously taken my off the ball and need to give it abit of a top up, could someone recommend which is the best oil (guessing it has to be synthetic) ?

My VW dealear sells Shell Helix, but still unsure which is best. My car is on the longlife regime for service.

Cheers in advance
Golf GTI MkV - Manual, 3dr , Reflex Silver, Monza II's, Xenons, Cruise, Highline, Armrest (new panel filter on the way!)
