206 GTI 180 Engine Oil
-> 206 Problems

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.

10w 40 is no thicker than 5w40

Total Quartz 7000 10w40 or Total Quartz 9000 5w40

They are the oils you want Wink

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!'
