Nice find! Hv sme heat

what viscosity isit

Go look :confused: please Sir :P

​can't see it on the bottle mate

If you need to top up your engine you have a problem...

Either burning it or losing it...

​Knackered ones...

Our company own a few lease diesel cars & they need topping up with approx 1L of oil about twice between services.

​Same could be said for you reply!

Sadly that was the case of older cars but modern engines burn through oil like there's no tomorrow. My A6 is not considered to have an issue if it burns through a litre every 1000 miles. Only if it's less than this will Audi entertain is even being looked at.

modern engines tend to use less viscous oils, due to higher tolerances, hence burn through oil much quicker than older vehicles (especially diesel lumps.) My Honda has a sticker down by the petrol release pulley, requesting that you check oil levels every 1000 miles. And who says we are becoming more technologically advanced? ;-)

Yeah, just checked and these do not have a viscosity :smiley:

Erm, dont see how my reply can be deemed as having no manners, and even if it did what goes around comes around :smile:

Troll? Never posted a deal? Why are you posting nonsense?
With long service intervals, even a car burning 100g of oil every 2000 miles (i.e not much and definitley not knackered) might benefit from one top up between oil changes.

The spec is a bit to non-descriptive for me, but the bottle would be handy, so might just fill it with some oil from my 5ltr Mobil 1 tub.

not really. what school did you go to.

I never need to top up between services but my car has only done 233,000 miles.

Very Good, but if you only do 6000 miles beteen services then thats not altogether suprising. My point was some modern cars have very long service intervals and given that all cars burn some oil (even if its only a little bit) topping up is not a function of a "knackered" engine as a fool above said.

I usually did my oil changes at 5,000 / 6,000 miles but now, due to aching bones, it was 10,000.

Yup, getting down there to drain the oil doesn't get any easier as the years roll by. Still a nice feeling though when you've done it.

Aye, at least, with fully synthetic, you can extend the intervals.
I have some fuses to replace and even that is a pain these days.
