Hello there.
I had a VIP service thing from the VW dealer I bought my TDi, however they are 150 miles away.
They said I can go to Ford dealer which is also one of their dealers,under same company name, 60 miles away from me. They said if I call ahead they will make sure,or order, they have OEM parts and oil for my oil change.
That did not sound good to me,I can not trust Ford dealer for servicing my TDI.
My oil change is due in 2k miles.
I made my research I decided to get Manual Oil Extractor instead of going underneath the car,since I do not have a garage or driveway.
For oil I checked some post and some outdated posts show that
Edge Professional Long Life Full Synthetic Engine Oil (5w-30) - 1Quart-Castrol
This oil is recommended by many drivers. How many liters do I need?
Shell or any other brands, do they have something better?
Where do you guys get your engine oil? From the dealer?
Thanks!
