Think you will find the PD oil is 505.01 spec or higher (the oil you have shown is for the early non PD engines) and ranges from

[seatkid]

Is this OK for my PD Engine?

Definitely not. You require 505.01 or better. 505.00 is old basic diesel oil.

 

If you want cheap PD Oil then try phoning a local VW/Seat/Skoda dealer and ask for Quantum PD Oil (5l can). (This is Castrol Edge Oil as far as I can tell).

 

IIRC Millers Oil offer good quality but low priced PD oil.

 

Halfords often have 2 for 1 offers which makes their 505.01 full synthetic diesel oil extremely competitive phoine them before you visit and ask.

the last time i serviced my bus i used the same vw spec oil you have quoted it was only in it for 14 months, carlube triple r 5/40 fully synth same vw spec...it was only when looking on here & sharan forum that i realised how specific these pd engines are for correct oil...so i rang up carlube,even they confirmed what has been said on here that the oil that a pd needs has got to be 505.01..i also asked would the other spec oil have any damaging affect to my engine even though it was still a vw spec oil & fully synth ..he said only long term may be around 8 to 10 years & would mostly affect the particle filter & egr valve & maybe clog up the cat but never been proven...he also said the reason it needs 505/01 is because of fixed interval service what ever that is...iv since changed to correct oil carlube triple r 5-40 fully synth for pd engines as he said same price....i have now got castrol edge 5-40 for pd engines for next service as i can get this of a friend who works there for free....just play it safe & put pd oil in it.alot cheaper than an engine..thats my opinion anyway...

[seatkid]

Please see where I have highlighted the text - it is VW 50501 compliant - That isn't my question - my question is has anyone used it - is it OK - it seems remarkably cheap?!!

 

 

Please read your own post :blink:

 

It says Volkswagen VW 501.01, VW 505.00

 

Its not 505.01 compliant!! Thats why it seem so cheap!!!

 

he said only long term may be around 8 to 10 years & would mostly affect the particle filter & egr valve & maybe clog up the cat but never been proven

This is bullshit. The 505.01 has a high shear additive that is to protect the camlobes operating the injectors and the valve gear - the design has very small contact area and much higher than normal operating pressure. Without the necessary protection, wear is inevitable and can be quite rapid - just a few months. It is a proven fact and many cases have been reported. You may be lucky and get away with one period of using a non certified oil (because it has just enough capability of it is a good oil) - but once the oil barrier is compromised, metal to metal contact scores and strips the hardened cam surfaces and its then too late......

Nasty case of dyscalculia there, could have wrecked your nice PD engine.

 

Buy the correct grade of oil and all will be fine, there is loads of rubbish talked about this brand or that brand, generally the more people spend the more excited they get about the marketing blurb.

 

I'll second Seatkid and recommend Millers XFE-PD oils, they're terrific for quality and value.

Thanks Guys - my apologies for misreading my own post - It's all very confusing all those 5's 0's and 1's!! (Mumof4 will confirm it's my age)

 

I just feel that we are being ripped off by the price of these oils - but as we have no choice it just remains to find the cheapest of the correct standard. A1 stores say there is only

What are the symptoms of a "knackered" engine after using low spec non-PD oil? Does it vibrate? Sound lumpy at low revs? Shake the whole car?

Edited September 15, 2008 by edatelder

shake the whole car/vibrate,sure its not the stabilizer bar gone?

Hi Gregers

 

Yes I know that Halfrauds had a BOGOF offer - but they have it no longer! Their oil is

cant get no extra sorry took me ages to get him to get me it...with reference to my entry above if your saying my pd engine is wrecked...dont think so,running perfect i also read opening post wrong with the oil quoted mine was to vw 505.01..the reason why i rang carlube up themselves was to verify i was using the correct oil as it never stated pd engines...then he said..yes its the correct spec but they also do one just for a pd same spec...so replaced it...and with reference to what he said about damage...got to agree with you out there...thats why it was changed just in case...

I think it is probably Fuch's Titan, unless it has changed recently.
