..1.8T 20VT petrol,

Just wondering if you could advise on what would be the oil of choice for my car, I am looking to do an oil change in the next week or two so I want to know what I should be looking for and how much I will need.

Thanks in advance

Hi

The oil you need depends on the service schedule the car is on. If it is on an annual/10k miles service, you need an oil that meets the 502.00 specification. If it's the variable service schedule, you need an oil that meets the 504.00 spec.

502.00 - http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-746-vw-50200-oil.aspx
504.00 - http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-749-vw-50400-oil.aspx

The 504.00 oils*are all good oils, so make your decision based on any brand/price preference you have. With the 502.00 oils, go for a 0w-30, 5w30 or 0w-40 or 5w-40.

Cheers

Tim

It's every 10k mate so that means I need to be looking at the 502.00 spec then, excellent stuff cheers fella, I will probably be ordering some very soon then :)

Glad I've helped, it's a good time to buy at the moment with the offer prices that are on.
