Mine gets done twice a year, regardless. I've always changed the oil and filter even when I had the vectra, been told it's the engines blood so keep it in good condition. I only use the vauxhall oil, I'm sure some say there is better but if vauxhall recommend it then it's good enough for my vxr.

I have a friend that swears by mobile 1 . Yes maybe better if leaving in for a year but as mine is changed within 6 months I've not found the need to use anything but vx oil.
It goes to vx each year so I get the stamp, and gets done inbetween by the vx mechanic I've known for 30 years. But can't stamp my book.

No worries...I never though for a second you had.
I know nothing about under the bonnet and only go under there to check levels and to give it a clean. The rest I leave up to VX. Word would soon spread if their recommended oil was shite.2017 Vauxhall Insignia Grand Sport Sri Nav 1.5 (165ps) Turbo petrol in Lava Red - Keyless entry and start - 18” five spoke alloy wheels - Front fog lights - Tinted rear windows - Aluminium sports pedals - Ambient interior led lighting - Front and rear parking assist - Active emergency braking - Forward collision assist - Front pedestrian alert - Traffic sign recognition - Lane keep assist - Cruise control - Speed warning and limiter - Voice recognition - Bluetooth - Duel zone climate control - Front and rear electric windows - High beam assist - Auto lights - Auto wipers - Wifi hotspot - 8” colour touchscreen Navi 900 with Android Auto, Apple Car Play and DAB
