Hi All,

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find Castrol Edge 5w-20 in Melbourne or online?

Im assuming i may have to ask a dealer or independent shop......

You'll probably have to get a store or distributor to order it for you.
20l drum would be the most cost effective way to order, too.
That's what I do with my preferred 10w-40 for the TD5

Is there a range of oils that work in it, or is it only that specific grade?

With the Td5 there is a range of oils with limitations based on climate.

If thats the case, there may be something else that is 100% fine with the motor and also available.

You off with the pixies again - not sure how the TD5 got into the discussion but the OP has a RRS Supercharged V8 Petrol not a TD5.

both rick and Slunnie mentioned td5.As examples.
ie. I order the oil for my engine, I don't get it off the shelf, and Slunnie mentioned that the TD5 is ok with oils from 0W30 to 10w-60, is there a range of oil weights specced for the RRS V8 engine and not just the 5w-20?

You need to read "Td5" in the context that it was written Eevo.

The owners book for the same engine in the L322 only has 5W-20 WSS-M2C925-A specification.

The owners book for the same engine in the L322 only has 5W-20 WSS-M2C925-A specification.Ford US oil specs.
The US market has been successfully using xW-20 oils for years.
All manufactures there specify it for their petrol engines.

Had the same issue with the D4 SC re 5w20 availability.

I rang the dealer who cited LR specs which said 5w20 while under warranty then 5w30 afterwards.

So I use 5w30 Edge now.
