Halfords has the booklet thing, you look up the car and it tells you what Pug recommend you put in it, and what grade. | |

I just read a bit of the Haynes Manual and it says you should use the same anti freeze when topping up. I only put half a cup full in anyway so should be OK. | |

I haven't got a hand book, only the service book which says nothing about oil. | |

why don;t you look in the hand book for what oil it takes. probably 10w40 semisynth. as for topping up your rad do it with 50/50 water/coolent. | |

It's a bit like that now :lol: Sometimes dies :lol: I think the coolant and engine oil need changing. I fucked the coolant up by putting in to much water :lol: | |
