Short term offer on Total Ineo ECS 5W30 oil

Post by bobins »

Just a 'heads up' that there's a short term offer on eBay (UK) giving 15% off from various sellers. One of the sellers is PipercrossPerformanceOils who I've dealt with before, but have no association with. The offer is valid until 11.59pm 8/10/20. https://pages.ebay.co.uk/coupons/2020/gysv7/index.html

5 litres Ineo ECS 5W30 £24.64 delivered
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Total-Quartz ... 3979832190

10 litres Ineo ECS 5W30 delivered £44.62 delivered (£22.31 / 5 litres)
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Total-Quartz ... 2542218140

Pipercross oils offer a further discount for multi-buy as well.

The eBay 15% discount is not automatic, you need to enter the code POPUPOCT15 at checkout when prompted.

Assuming offer is still on today, if you’re a Top Cashback member you can get a £2 cash back bonus on any order over £5.00 if ordered from EBay through them...£2 bonus cash back valid today only.

This is the only oil I use for my 136,000 mile 2007 C4 1.6 HDI DV6TED4 engine. Still on original turbo.

Just bought 10 litres of the stuff now.

I still need to find a place selling the genuine Citroen filters cheap, as they appear to be the only oil filters that use a synthetic media.

I have just been on eurocarparts site for oil and filter for SWMBO's Celerio and they have a 40% off sale on entry of code MOT2020. I got the mobil oil and filter for £33 instead of £57 last time!! :-D

Ed - If it's the 1109CK filter you're after, then the cheapest I can find are £7.69 each delivered. They're Purflux L398A* (OE) with the extra pleated filter media as per genuine filters.
I managed to get a 10 pack of genuine filters a few years ago at a bargain price - thankfully I've still got a few left :)

I'm pretty sure L398A is the same as 1109CK, but make your own checks 8-[

I remember getting 10 proper Citroen filter about 5 years ago for £27. Michel wanted a few, so we went halves.

I got a big pack of L398A's off ebay a while ago and thought they were the real deal just under the Purflux brand. However, when compared to the genuine article they seem to be identical save for the grade of filter medium used.
I managed to get this picture of both of them.

Not sure if they're any worse than genuine but they certainly look different.

I've found out that the BMW mini also uses the same oil filter and BMW themselves seem to use the white 'synthetic medium.

Ed - odd that your Purflux filter looks yellow, whereas this one looks identical to the PSA one - though it's listed as a L358A:
purflux filter, eBay - fair use
purflux filter, eBay - fair use

Yeah that is very odd. I have the box here in my hand and it definitely says L398A, and it is certainly yellow!

Do your Purflux L398As have the Citroen / Peugeot logo on the top of the plastic bit?

Ok, so just for clarification, PSA offer 2 types of filter (talking about Elis's X7 here):

The original OEM Citroen Filter part: 9818914980

and their cheaper alternative 'Synthetic' filter, part: 1629084080

I can tell you that on parts, they only refer to the cheaper version as 'synthetic', so not saying the original isn't either.

It seems that the other filters (yellowish brown) for example as in part number 1109CL were for the DW12BTED4 FAP, DW12C diesels, and for the EW10A and EW7A petrol X7s. However, the 1109CL also has a cheaper PSA alternative which is the same as above (1629084080).

I have a feeling the grade of material used in the filters is down to the fact the 2.0hdi DW10 can do extended 2 year oil changes and so is designed to cope. Stick to 'conventional' 1 year/12k oil changes and the 'normal' filter media will suffice. It seems that just about all of the usual filter manufacturer/suppliers only supply 1109ck equivalents with 'normal' filter media, and Fram seem to be the only ones that offer ones with the extra 'pleated' construction.
