Hi everyone.

Can't find a definite answer to this so thought I'd ask here. Is this http://groceries.asda.com/asda-estor...okiesDetect...

Part or fully synthetic oil? Seen it in ASDA for £12.00 and it was next to a bottle of 10W40 GTX oil with "part synthetic oil" written on the front but the 5w30 oil just says "A1 B1 grade" on the back.

Anyone know?

Cheers

GTX in 5W/30 A1 will be part-synthetic, Edge and Magnatec will be fully synthetic.

Heres the one in ASDA. I also checked the site and it never came up in 5W30 so it's a tad confusing lol
