Anyone know a local supplier for the better engine oils, such as as Motul or Fuchs?

I don't fancy letting the remapped tractor go almost 15,000 miles before it's first feed of new lube.

Thanks, i have spoken with them and will get some top lube in due course.

Strangely, the original oil needs to be left in until the official mileage, as fully synthetic too soon harms the running-in, which used oil does better on a big diesel.
Then it's best to change it more regularly, so say several diesel experts i have spoken to.
