cameroon95 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 As titled,Ive been told 5w-30? Fully synthetic?The recommendations based on car bring up some pretty expensive oils for the full 5 litres on opie oils, around 40-60 quid!Its for my gfs car so I want a half decent oil but not paying a fortune, I spend less on oil for my DC5. Any recommendations on oil guys?Its just a standard 1.4 s no gti or anything fancyCheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeA Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I buy castrol 10w40 GTX from ASDA, good oil, well priced in there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m1cr08472 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I bought a bottle of cheap fully synthetic 10w40 oil for £15. If your not going to thrash your engine cheap oil should do the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DENTOUT Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 10w40 is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 10w40 is goodSome will be, some wont be.OP, avoid Opie, they are expensive IMOasda do the Castrol Edge range for 35 quid, get that in 0w30/5w30/5w40 If you want something good. Petronas oil on Eurocarparts is cheap and is of a high specification tooIf not, anything with VW505 written on the back will suffice.
