#1: Fully sythetic? Sythetic? Mineral? Author: QuArTz, Location: South CoastPosted: Thu Feb 02, 2012 5:38 am ---- I'm going to change the oil in my TU3JP 1.4 8v and I'm confused as to which oil I need.
Now.. I've searched the forum but cant find my answer or there's contraindicative info.
Which type of oil do I need? Is it 5W40 OR 5W30, Is it fully synthetic, synthetic or mineral?
Thanks

Are you that lazy you cant be bothered to go to the motor factor & save money?

Lee, maybe he doesnt have time to get to the shop? Sometimes it's easier to just get it delivered to your house/place of work.

Need to get some other bits from motor factors while I'm there
