what does the hand book say. I doubt it would be 15w40. thats quite thick for this Country. it probably recomends 10w40 or 5w30

It always makes me laugh when my dad gets me and oil filter from Vauxhall, and you see the price he paid is a quater of the retail price .

15w40 is particularly thick for this country. if you lived in greece I could understand but it won;t give great cold start performance
