Supply your own oil - which will be cheaper to if you get it from Costco ;)

Agreed.  (But didn't I already state that?  :wink:  :tongue:  :grin:)

shame I'm not a costco member :-(

Me too.  Don't think there is one anywhere near me!  :cry:

Anyway, even if you go into your main stealer, they should be able to sell you the proper LL3 stuff at trade price, even if you are not a trade customer.  :wink:  If they refuse, then try another stealer (including the Seat and Å koda ones  :wink:).

If all else fails, try Simon at Opie Oils, who is one of the forum sponsors - he can usually better Halfrauds and the like, and if you can plan ahead, he often has "specials", where he offers an extra discount, or throws in a litre top-up for free.  :wink:  :smiley:

Parkway normally - will be asked them tp use my own oil in the next couple of weeks.

Costco sell thems in 3x 1L packs - works out just over £7 a litre I think it was.

I got 12 litres for just over £46, so approx £11.50 per 3 litre pack (which is the minimum size they sell).

As good as a main dealer can be - I would prefer my mates garage to do it but its that stamp that people like.

Not been for a while now but its the only one I have used for this and my past Mk4 GTI a few years ago.
