ENGINE OIL & LUBRICANTS

Which are the right lubricants for your car? We’ve made finding the answer to
that question quick and easy with the Oil Finder tool.

GETTING EVERY OIL CHANGE RIGHT

 

When it’s time for an oil change, knowing the best engine oil to use is
essential. The answer to that question gets more complex every day. The latest
engines are getting smaller and more powerful all the time, and manufacturers
are specifying complex full synthetic motor oils to cope with higher engine
pressures and meet fuel efficiency targets.


 

If you’re driving a muscle car or a European import, the manufacturer may well
specify a full synthetic engine oil. Alternatively if you’re driving an older
domestic vehicle, the manufacturer may recommend a mineral oil. However, even
though that’s the most economical option, a full synthetic will almost certainly
look after your engine better. Knowing the best engine oil to use at every oil
change is essential.

 

Your owner’s manual will tell you which industry specification, type and grade
of oil the manufacturer specifies, and we’ve also made it quick and easy to see
all your options and make the right choice with our Oil Finder tool. Try it now.





WHAT DOES VISCOSITY MEAN?

Viscosity is a measurement of the thickness and 'ease of flow' in any liquid.
For example, water is a thin liquid that flows freely, so we say that it has a
low viscosity. Honey, on the other hand, is relatively thick and flows more
slowly. So we describe honey as having a high viscosity. It's also worth noting
that honey flows more easily - and is therefore less viscous - when it is
slightly warm. Engine oil behaves in pretty much the same way, which is why
mechanics will usually run an engine for a minute or two before draining used
engine oil away to replace it.

 

Our range of Viscosities include

• 5w-30 engine oil

• 0w-30 engine oil

• 0w-20 engine oil

• 5w-40 engine oil

• 15w-40 engine oil

• 0w-40 engine oil

• 5w-50 engine oil

• 10w-40 engine oil

• 10w-60 engine oil

There are so many engine oils out there, which one is right for your vehicle?
Well, there are three basic types: mineral, part synthetic and full synthetic.
Mineral oils are the least refined of the three, which means they cost less, but
also provide less protection, performance and economy than the other options.
Part synthetic engine oils are a blend of mineral oil and synthetic oil, to give
added performance, but still at a lower cost than full synthetic engine oils.
Full synthetics are the most expensive engine oils as they are highly refined,
but offer the best and protection and economy to absolutely every vehicle.
