[QUOTE="andyseadog, post: 391742, member: 9012"] OIL CHANGE Doing the N.C.T. Next week, and due an oil change shorty anyhow so i'm going to look after it tomorrow. Car has a hefty mileage, well clear of 100k on a 2004 K12 1.0 Usually change it with 5w30 magnetec around every 7-8000 miles, i like this oil seeing as its a bit thin its better for all my short stop-start journeys and the timing chain etc (chain is very quiet and want to keep it that way)... funds being tight i was just going to go for my local motor factors own brand oil in 10w40 semi-synt. as the car is on the market when i get it tested... the question the being, would this be a bad idea taking the car into account? is there any point paying extra for a brand name when it comes to oil? if anyone wants to recommend an oil please go ahead :D I also have 5 liters of delco 15w40 'high milage' aching to be used in the shed, but i think its too thick? (before some smart ass says it, not the whole 5 liters :P) [I]Probably should have put this in the K12 section, sorry[/I] [/QUOTE]
