Great thank you and am correct in thinking the oil should be changed every 10k and the main service after 20kOriginally posted by Howy View Post or Shell,Fuchs,Castrol all to Dexos 2/C3 specComment

Set your oil service reminder and the motor will let you know,depends on how/where its driven.I do mine every12mts regardless.

Many thanks for all your helpComment

The oil life is good for 20k miles or 12 months, whichever is sooner. After an interim the vehicle should have a major service. The service always alternate Interim, Major, Interim, Major etcInsignia Elite Nav 2ltr SIDI Turbo 250PS, Pearlescent Emerald Green, VX-Line Interior, VX-Line Exterior Styling Kit, Premium Brandy Nappa Sports Leather, 20" Elite Multi Spoke Alloy Wheels, 8" Digital Drivers Display, Bose Premium Audio System, Front Camera Pack, Rear View Camera, Adaptive Cruise Control, Advanced Park Assist, Rear Privacy Glass, Keyless Entry & Start, Tyre Pressure Monitoring System, Factory Fitted TowbarComment

Brand doesnt matter, but just make sure the oil is Dexox 2. Yours, like the one you highlighted, must be Dexos 2.Originally posted by Howy View Post or Shell,Fuchs,Castrol all to Dexos 2/C3 specComment

I agree, but I'd say if you can afford it, particularly with low mileage/ short journey vehicles, change sooner. In my opinion if your using high spec, fully synthetic oil, at high mileage, stick with manufacturer guidelines. If you're on short journeys and low mileage change sooner.Originally posted by 0011728 View PostComment

I always use shell AG, Dexos2 is the min spec you should go for, shell AG is a low ash oil which is better for engines with turbos dpfs etcOriginally posted by Mr Wullie View Post
my cars on 116k and runs great, had the sump off to change the oil pick up seal and mechanic mate who was doing the work said the engine looks great for the mileageComment
