I'm about to change the oil in the tin top which would appear to drink single malt castrol turbo diesel 0W-30. Halfrauds want £45. Anyone know anywhere cheaper?

Unless you need a VW PD oil Morrisions petrol forecourts (not in store) sell Havoline Synthetic for under £17 for a full 5 litres they also 5w/40 at a good price.

If your engine is VAG group PD oils are not all to the same specification if you want to use extended service intervals check very carfully what specifcation number of PD oil is required some are only available from VW dealers

I always use Comma oils from the local parts store. Fully specified and usually much cheaper than the 'big' brands.

If you can get a Halfraud's trade card then their own brand oils are usually 1/2 price

For reference The halfords own oils are actually branded Comma oils.

They are also made to the same spec as the equivilent castrol oils.

Most own brand oils in the UK are Comma --- not a lot wrong with Comma lubricants
