Hi
I have searched but cant find a thread ive seen before about what engine oil to use. I went on to opie oils and put my 206's info in (1.1 lx 2001)
its said to use 5w-40. Is this correct as I've been told to use 10w-40 instead?
thanks for any help

Just realized I've had 5w-30 for the last two months. Would it have done any damage, just bought the 10w-40 castrol from halfords. Gonna change it soon

It's jus the thickness at lower temps.

Halfords recommend 5w40 but 10w40 is mor suitable.

It won't do any damage.
