#1: Best oil and spark plugs for my gti180 Author: gogs_macaulay, Posted: Wed Dec 19, 2012 3:48 am ---- What's the best oil for the 180 engine and spark plugs, also is a piper cross panel filter worth it, can you replace the fuel filter in the 180s?

I used Castrol Edge 0W-40 with no issue's, I guess its down to personal preference really, as long as you don't buy cheap s**t you should be fine.
If your still unsure contact Opie Oils and they will recommend a good oil to use.

Don't worry about it mate, everyone gets it at some point, its just the old b******s on here getting fed up of answering the same questions every day.
It's nothing personal.
Other things to note:
No one likes or can read text talk.
We like good standards of spelling and punctuation lol
And you must abuse MattieRS, MrBSI and LeeThr when you see them online
#17: Re: Best oil and spark plugs for my gti180 Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Fri Dec 21, 2012 4:59 am ---- Simple answer to the original question is go to the local dealer, walk into the parts department, ask them for the oil and plugs for your car. The guy will disappear for less than 2 minutes, come back and magically have the right parts in his hands. You hand over a few pieces of paper with the queens head printed on them and the parts guy will give you the correct parts and if you're lucky he will also give you a few bits of round metal, also with the queens head on them.
Pretty simple to get the right parts for a car really.

i work 6 days a week, the dealer is about 45 miles away from me, so thats a round trip of 90 miles
when it can take less than 2 minuets to post on here, find out what i need then order it, plus it costs less getting it online.
so you think its easier for me to take a day off work to travel 90 miles just for oil and plugs?
i think not!!
#25: Re: Best oil and spark plugs for my gti180 Author: gpvecchi, Location: ItalyPosted: Fri Dec 21, 2012 2:02 pm ---- I vote for OEM Bosch plugs; I read some quality test on oil and it seems that Royal Purple is very good, but I haven't tried it...
