Oil Change

Unread post by GORAX »

Hello everyone,

Since I'm going to Turkey I wanted to change the oil. My car is now at 210,000 km. Which oil should I put in? 0w30 or 5w30?

Citroen recommendation is 00W30 B71 2312 (C1C2) any decent branded oil to the spec will be OK - Citroen recommends Total, but that's just because they're French!

Make sure that the spec of the oil you buy is B71 2312. 0W30 by itself is not enough.
