the black stuff

[croxsons]

I need to put some oil in my Passat 2.0 PD TDi (170ps).

Any thoughts as to best brand and where to buy?

Its probably running on the VAG longlife stuff. Go to VW and be prepared for a shock.

If it is longlife then its about £13 a litre. All cars coem out hte factory with long life and then it is changed on the first service dependant on what service regime the engine is on.
