With the pennies being a bit tight at the moment, I was looking for a good deal on oil for my TDi 140 and whilst strolling through Tesco's (as you do), I noticed that they're selling 2 Litres of full synth oil for a tenner. It says on the bottle that it's good for Audi/Volkswagen diesel engines so thought that this seemed like bargain of the century and bought some.
After topping up the oil (with a very small amount), the engine seems to be running nicely but - and I could be imagining this - fuel consumption seems to have increased a fair bit.
Now, if this is the case should I just go and get a full oil change to flush this stuff out or will it be ok to get better oil and top it up.... Or could I simply be imagining all of this?
