Not one mention of Castrol Rx7. I've always used in the 4.2 and never had any issues. They are all good if changed regularly. Probably the main issue especially with the older style motors is too thin an oil might affect gaskets!
I tried Fuchs and mine did NOT like it, but runs like a champ on valvoline.
Have always used penrite in other deisels but the previous owner of my gu had used castrol gtx so i thought best to keep with it. No problems & fair priced.
is the delo400 OK for the CRD, or is it pickier with oil?
$99 for 20l of delo 400 from caltex on Balcatta Rd. They wanted $110, but I talked (without much effort) her into a 10% discount. Not the cheapest that anyone has managed, but not too shabby.
Oil change all done now (and tires rotated as well)
I just swapped from valvoline super diesel 15w40 to dello 400 after alot of the talk on here about it, definitely a little quieter then it was, I do oil every 5000km.. also had some notchyness in the gearbox when changing gears (I have a manual) and I put in Castrol vmx-m after the recommendations I received about it.. highly recommend it, gearbox is smooth as silk now

Hi I want to change my oil in my 3 ltr diesel every 5000 Klms instead of a dealer doing it what is the best - price no object - but smooth running and fuel comsumption a priority Thanks Paul
