Four Litres for £19.59, with free delivery - best price I've ever seen it at.


Edit to try to sort out link formatting - don't know what's going on with that.

Does the fully synthetic not go in both petrol and diesel engines?

You can check the price history here - it's a website that I saw recommended in another PH thread a while back. They'll email you when the price of an item drops below a level you specify.

Smart shoppers can then use a cashbback site or EasyFundraising to squeeze that bit more value out of it. thumbup

Do your own googling based on the description. I just have. Looks like it's safe to go in the wife's Mini Cooper-S, which is sensitive on oil, and also suitable for VAG PD diesels, which are on my shopping list. I may buy a couple to stick on the shelf in the garage.

Edit: 2x bought

Thats a great price. But I use GM oil instead. 5L for the same price.

Good price! The Castrol one meets VW 507 (whatever that means!), which the GM one doesn't.

Well, it would be if I'd have read the title properly. Not 10w60. Arse!

Don't worry, you just need to use twice as much.

Yep and now sold by EZY CARE rather than Amazon. I guess they've sold out.

Looks like we might have cleared them out - that happened surprisingly quickly.

Edit: 7:30pm - it's back. The original ink is working again, for the moment.

Edit: 8:30pm - it's gone again. Best keep trying occasionally - who knows how Amazon's systems work these things out.
