Hi All,
My 180 seems to be using oil.
It doesnt smoke or leak but needs topped up on a regular basis.
Its currently got Millers XFS 5w40 fully synthetic.
Is this the correct grade? or should I go for a thicker 10w40?
Just wondering what everyone else puts in there 180?
Cheers.

When replacing the oil filter I believe you'll need 5.5 litres!

Just checked through my hand book and it says to 'use 5w40 synthetic oil only for the 2.0 180 bhp engine!'
