Hi,

Thinking of doing an interim oil change on my car. Does anyone know what spec. it needs to be?

I want to get some today and don't have the book with me.


Cheers

Mobil 1 !!Best oil you can get mate. 0W-40 should be fine. Mobil 1 New Life 0W-40 is the long life equivalent of the vag spec VW 503 00
