Engine oil and Gearbox Oil
Hi! Please can you recommend which Engine oil specification is required for my van VIN VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] and does it need Gearbox oil change (Manual) and if so which specification is required. It has done almost 116,000 miles. Want to do the service myself now. Thanks

Re: Engine oil and Gearbox Oil
Ok, as for engine oil the official oil for the DV6FCU engine is and for UK based vehicles:
0W30
The PSA Standard is B71 2312.
For the gearbox from your build date, the PSA recommended oil is TOTAL TRANSMISSION HBVFE2 75W
Great Britain is in Zone A on the following Engine Oil guide: Just go down until you find the tables under Zona 'A' and then your engine (DV6FCU) and you will see the oil I've listed above.
