    Engine oil

    I have been using Caltex Delo 400 multigrade in my 4.2 TDi, but finding it hard to get.
    Any recommendations on another good oil.
    Cheers Tonks

    I've been using Delo as well mate. Last two services I used Magnatec 15w 40 because I found it hard to find Delo as well and to try something different.
    Magnatec works fine.

    G'day Tonks,
    would you believe, when you key in 'engine oil' in the search panel at the top of the page, you get reams of irrelevant stuff. Dunno how that could be,,,,,but.
    Try 'Caltex delo 400' and you'll get the start of a heap of threads.
    Suggest though you try the Caltex help desk No. on the last drum, or on the Caltex site and the helpful chap on the other end will give you the locallest supplier.
    Worked for me in tiny Adelaide. I've used it in 2 patrols over about 500K and remain happy.
    Good luck.
    Col.
