after driving all round the Sunny Coast yesterday chasing the mythical Penrite HPR D5, I gave up and dropped into Allan Jennings Landrover at Gympie on the way home, complete with Jerrycan and got 20l of Durablend as at least it seems to exist and I need to do a oil change, regardless its going in the donk, anyone have an opinion on this product????

The Penrite HPR D5 availability is a bit hit and miss. Have seen it pop up occassionaly but not often enough to be consistant. Generally the HPR5 should suffice as is recommended also. I do not think many retailers stock the HPR D5 due to its limited application, but sometimes get it by mistake. Speaking to reps they say the HPR5 is fine and basically the same oil anyway, just semi synthetic as compared to full synthetic.

I was at a place yesterday when a bloke asked for HPR D5 for his Freelander. They didn't have it and said HPR5 was what they used.
