#1: oil Author: Phil74, Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2014 10:55 am ---- Im going to change the oil on my 1.4 hdi its on 105,00 and would like to know what oil you use? Lots of different answers on google some saying not to use synthetic?
Book says 10 40 . Is the oil filter a pain? Not paying £100 for the garage to do it this time
Cheers

#5: Re: oil Author: kirk46, Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2014 12:40 pm ---- i think its 27mm socket you need

#7: Re: oil Author: Phil74, Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2014 2:00 pm ---- I thought the oil filter was just a socket,it has a nut at the top and I assume a paper filter inside
