    Penrite HPR vs Dello 400

    Hi all


    I am about to do my first oil change since I brought the troll. From reading on the forum, most people tend to use either
    Dello 400 multigrade or Penrite HPR.

    I am interested in hearing from people who have tried both and which they prefer to use and reasons why

    I am driving 2007 3.0L Y61CRD Patrol.


    Thanks in advance

    not sure if the CrD is more suited to one oil and the DiD to another
    maybe this thread will see a pattern evolve

    ZD30DI - Dello 400. Change every 6 months . KM's anywhere from 3000 to 7000 it just depends how much I use it , and I have a provent catch can fitted I reckon it catches 200 to 500 ml of oil residue in the 6 month period , this depends on the km's done also .
    The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
