at least it didn't stop under a wooden bridge this time!!! (D9000 )
I have used Fully Synthetic 0w30-5W40 Mobil 1 in a Senator 24v for 18 years and 189000miles with no problems at all. As said previously change the oil on a regular basis 18000 miles seems a long time to me, I'll be changing it at 9-11000miles.
My 4.2TDI needs VW507.00 spec with the DPF. Audi charged £150 for oil in my last service so I will be supplying my own next time.
Check out Euro car parts, discount code varies 31% off just finished now on 25% off. Opie oils is another keenly priced site, or if you have a vauxhall trade club number GM brand 507.00 is available.
