|
|
Hi all,
What grade, Fully or Semi Syntethic, and what manufacture (for example Castrol) is recommended in terms of engine oil for a 2002 Grand Vitara 2ltr TDI?
Is there a long life oil that could also be used? Or is this primarily used for high end cars like BMW or Audi? |

Thanks zocko
In Halfords they tell me its 5w30 semi-syn and on carparts.ie it says 15w40 semi-syn!
Not sure if all kinds recommended will do or if the guys at halfords for example are wrong etc.
I think I'll try your suggestion of 10w30. |
