OIL wich make do you use?

Right then guys wich make of oil do you use.... me personally ive allways gone for Morris Oil.( plus my dad is a morris stockist/dealer ) wich is allways handy. What oil do you use? ( i use Multivis 10W/40 Semi-Synthetic)

i've always used mobil 1, 10w5 (i think) one the thing tells me anyways.

always have an always will dont ask me why

castrol 10/40 semi synthetic had 2 oil change in 2.5 months, 8500 miles lol

went from dirty old oil, to halfords oil, nd now castrol with engine flush

Halfords oil

it was cheap lol like 10n quid 4 5 litres lol :s

i amembarased to admit but i did

only thing ill buy from there is oil filter, sand paper, paint and an air freshener lol nd oil, castrol now though

Oil filter......... CES UK go for MANN filtter. Dont tell me you top up with fuel at supermarkets 2??

only shell garage, use to run optimax, but prices are rediculas, ill use the local garage, only if im on red nd they chrge like 1.14 a lire, they take the pics, but they fill up 4 u , so if its raining its gd

Owww ye Blaenau Petrol............ Standing for months full of water....... silly boiiiiiii. Shell Porthmadog.......

it is dirty fuel, shell porthmadogs good, but ques are shit there, i allways had to drive onto the curb cus id blok traffic, but ive just lowered my car nd i cant do tht shitz no more

nd my car likes to drink alot of fuel lol

Mobil 1, 10w40

I fill up at ASDA when possible. It all comes from bloody Shell anyways, but this way I'm not paying through the nose.

mobil 1 do not make a 10-40 or a 10-5 ( ) be careful as mobil 1 may be a bit advanced for your engine its for very modern engines with close tolerances and very little wear the viscosity grade of 0w is like water.

mr gti-8v - dont buy halfords filters, it was proven that either the pressure relief valve in the ones for the mk2 gti either didnt work or was non existant a number of years ago - MANN from ces is OE quality.

for me any generic 10-40 semi - comma, fuchs, morris - tend not to go castrol way as i think it smells funny both out of the crank case and sometimes out of the exhaust when running it.

i use santagold 5w40 fully synthetic the vag oil u get in dealerships only on shell vpower
matt

For a 1.4 8v Seat Ibiza - what oil do I need? Sorry for lurking on your thread Golf 456

10w40 semi synth thats what i used to use

Go for Morris Multivis 10W/40 Semi-Synthetic.

Shell Helix 10-40w, its handy because CES stock it, and its pretty damn good.

Mann Filters..obv

and Shell petrol when possible, been using BP since I been in Belfast, £1.09 I paid today

Asda fuel its what ffails at shell so they ship it to asda. Have a read on google

i use cheapo shit from motor factors,

imo from working previosuly in lucas (yes i lost my job when they went bust) all oil does basically the same job, the performace pay through the nose shite just means u dont have to change it as often, but seeing as the cars i own have regular services anyways, then it dont matter lol

Castrol Magnatec 10w-40

retro 20/50 stuff. my engine`s got a sticker on it warning me no to change

There's nowt wrong with Halfords oil, its made for halfords by shell, give it a chance boys and girls.
