Hey chaps,

Just a quick question about 2 cars

Changing oil in my 2.4jtd and my girlfriends 1.2 16v corsa (v reg)

I'm not exactly wealthy at the moment so I was wondering what oil is reccomended for these engines at a reasonable price?
Also how much oil do I need?

I will be empting and flushing the engines.

thanks for any replies

Darren

You need 5,5L (5 should be enough) 10W-40. I would go for shell and of course a new oil filter. All should go around 40 quid.

Cheers Joske,

I forgot to ask, I know oil goes to the turbo, is this done via the enigne oil or is this seperate?
Any speacil way to change this or just a normal oil change as if it was a petrol egine?

Just change the oil and filter, the turbo is feed when the engine is running via oil pump and duct.
