Oil for the 3.0 V6
« on: 03 June 2009, 16:58:39 »

Euro car parts have me confused, I always thought that I should use 10w 40 oil but they said to use
5w 30, will buy 10w 40 again but just want to double check.

Vx oil surely cheaper with a Trade Card £10.89 + VAT for 5 litres when I bought it 2 weeks ago.  :y

It's a simple offer - every time you order four cans of the same specification oil, you only pay for three.

Offer available on 5 litre sizes of Semi synthetic and Longlife Super synthetic.

Offer valid until 31 December 2009.


Straight off the Trade Club website  :y

Must have been old stock that they had or hadn't been told, they'll be stuffed as they won't get any replacements from VXM.

The 5 ltr offer is still running for the rest of the year (unless VXM's new owners think otherwise) but the 20 ltr offer of buy 3 get one free finished in March, i think

If you got the 20ltr deal a couple of days agao i'd get back and buy the rest before they suss out whats going on :)

Cheers
Andy
