    Wow I didn't know you could change out the brakes to fit the smaller rims, very interesting but sounds expensive. Anyway I sure that I will enjoy the experiences that this vehicle will bring and maybe not enjoy some of the problems by the sounds of things.

    I use Castrol Edge 5w-30 in my 2.7 D3. The super cheap near me does stock it. They seem to have specials on this oil a few times a year and so I tend to get it when the deals are on for about $55 for 5L.

    Pity - it doesn't meet the ACEA spec for the engine...

    I'd suggest you stop using it... It's only A3/B4.

    You need A5...

    Graeme is correct what he says. For what its worth I search High and low for the 5w - 30 Castrol Magnetec A5. Repco will get it for you as the are supposed to be a Castrol dealer. Supercheap usually will get it but only in 20lts.
    The cheapest by far should be your ford dealer they use it in the Ranger, and if you take a container just buy what you need

    Or switch to one you can get easily.

    These both are available in 10 litre bottles.
