    Best Engine Oil For TD5

    I know I did a post recently re "best engine oil for a Puma" and recieved very helpful advice. I also expect this question has also been done to death also. But with so many oils on the market these days I would like the opinion of people who know before I spend SHMBO's money.

    I reccomend nulon synthetic, use the viscosity index suitable for the ambient conditions.

    I have used the Valvoline Synpower 5w40 in my td590 since its been in Australia.

    It seems to be a good oil as far as i can see.

    I also use it a td5 d2 I maintain.

    (and the slightly heavier version in our v8 d2)
