That sounded better so I went to order it this morning ......half an hour later I walk out as they keep putting me to the back of the queue/answering the phone or talking to each other as I'm obviously not worth bothering about for a lousy 690 bucks.
Castrol gave me several names as dealers to try so off I went before trying Supacrap. Covs (Coventry) just laughed and said they'd order it but I'd have to wait until they had orders for 6 drums so it could take a year or so.
Repco couldn't be bothered at all...."just get something off the shelf, not worth us ordering it".
When at Supacrap they phoned Castrol and the price to them was 176 dollars!!!!!!
Cost to the public $345 so not a bad mark up at nearly 100%.
I can't be bothered with this any more, it's just a sodding Ford engine so why is it so hard to buy the right oil for it?
Gonna be another poxy Puma on carsales.com soon....

Thanks Ben, I was using the phone for those posts so not as easy to do a search

Thanks Sashidi, from the the list of Total products this one looks good
for a Puma with no DPF ...Total Quartz 9000 Future NFC 5W-30

Have been quoted $42 incl gst per 5 litre can. Not available in 20l but 208l available from Perth distributor

Better than $98 per 5 litre I paid for Castrol Edge with same specs!

Yes I am using that total oil here in NZ in my 2008 puma and no problems, recommended by my friend who has the "unofficial" but much better land rover servicing shop here in NZ. they can get 4l,20l and 208l
We have the fuchs oil here as well.

Thanks to Justinc

Hi all,
Wearied I was told the SLX OE is a redundant product and not longer available.
Cast roll has replaced it with edge professional OEX

Any experience?
