Rhysallison Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Just purchased a Mk1 Arosa 1.4 8v on 60000 miles and looking to give it an intrusive service. A few places have advised different types of oil 5w40 or 10w40 which one is more appropriate for my vehicle? Also what brands are recommended?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3LLIOTT Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I have 10w40 in my 1.4 if that helps. Any decent brand will be okay. I think I used Castrol last time.Welcome to the forum too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I use Motul 8100 X-Max 0W-40 in my GTI, but that's due to extremely cold starts and that I can afford it.As said above though, any decent brand and 10w40 should be fine.
