My Skoda Octavia last company cars which had basically the same engine was fed on Castrol Magnatec which I think is semi-synthetic. 185,000 miles later, all is still well although I have just had to clean the EGR valve on the current one.
Use the best quality oil you can afford - penny-pinching just is not worth it. |
