Steve K 5 1 Cars Posted March 8, 2022 Hi all, what oil should my car use?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,003 Posted March 8, 2022 Assuming that it is predominantly road use and it's engine oil that you're talking about, 10W40 semi-synthetic or 5W40 fully-synthetic will be fine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve K 5 1 Cars Posted March 20, 2022 So found one of the boot lid hinge bolts was snapped off today. Managed to cross thread another spare 10mm bolt on for security as only 2 threads to grab on to but reckon it's not the original tailgate as the paint is flaking ... time to find a new one me thinks!

Sorry but this is awful, it’s now taking hot air from the exhaust manifold rather than cool from the front of the car. Put it back is my advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve K 5 1 Cars Posted March 20, 2022 I will re locate it once I get some new piping as i realised that too. The old standard filter housing brackets were all broken and needed fixing which is why i changed it as it was loose. Not fussed about the power as I only poodle about anyway. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
