Recommended engine oil


Recommended Posts

Its been 12 month since my last service and last february did my cylinder head. Recently my engine has been a bit noisey at start up (tappit sounding noise) then after about 10 mins it dissapears.

I was planning to firstly check my gaps in valves then do an oil change/service. Hopefully that will sort it out unless the valve caps are worn.

Just wanted some advice on the best grade of oil to use based on a 300TDI engine with approx 140K miles on the clock.

I have been told you start increasing viscosity of the engine oil as your engine ages.

Any recommendations as to the best to use ?

As usual any feedback and advice is greatly appreciated.

Ian
