V6 takes more than 5 litres though. TC offer of 4 for 3 allows for three full changes iirc (haven't done mine yet  :-[)

Is there any truth that oil can seperate if kept for a long time.

Best thing to do is to go to a vauxhall dealership, state car model, age and mileage - they will give you the bits you need, always use main dealers though, cheaper than you may think!
