Run your car details through here and it will give you the info you need:

I think Castrol and other major oil companies do simlar oil selector websites.

I'm currently running Total Quartz INEO ECS 5W-30 in my 2.0 HDi, managed to get it really cheap (compared to average retail prices)

Re: Engine oil
Nielsen CDG seem to be consistently cheap for Total oil in the UK, otherwise there's Opie oils but they don't list Total 5W30. Other low cost oil suppliers are also undoubtedly availablevborovic wrote:I'm currently running Total Quartz INEO ECS 5W-30 in my 2.0 HDi, managed to get it really cheap (compared to average retail prices)

Re: Engine oil
Do I need to point out I'm from outside of the UK? ... ... If there's free shipping within the EU from them, I would gladly order if it would be cheaper than mine ...

Re: Engine oil
You need a low SAPS / ash oil - and the one thing they are not is cheap.... with 2 1.6 HDis here and 2 changes a year on each, I am looking at £100 / year in oil costs
Although Neilson (good link that!) are doing the Total 5W30 at £21.59 / 5l and free delivery if you order over £60...worth a punt, I'll look next time - just bought some for the next change.
