Did you own the vehicle when the oil was last changed? If so and the job was contracted out to a garage, ask them the grade of oil they used, (they may even ask you to pop in whilst they top it up for you). If however you bought the bongo with the oil that's already in it... assume nothing, and base your choice of oil on opinions voiced on here. I wouldn't assume the last owner had fitted the "correct" type of oil, i'd drop the lot, and replenish with the best quality oil you can afford, along with a new oil/air filter too...celtictigress wrote:Hi I have a 1995 2.5 Diesel Tintop, The oil is a wee bit low and I was thinking of topping it up however after much head scratching in Halfords I am at a loss as to which type of oil I should buy
Any suggestions?
Thanks
