There is an oil thread, lots of stuff on there, but what would be best for best performance?

Dry sump and thinnest oil spec possible.

as the Fabia VRS isn't a performance car , what is the point of wasting valuable hard earned cash on expensive so-called performance enhancing oils

just make sure you use the correct spec oil for the PD engine , 505.01 , 5w40

i use Millers PD-XE it seems to work well until it spills all over the road

Casatrol Edge does the job for me

Hello One & All,

As regards to oil, I think as long as oil used is the Skoda reconized grade, as opposed to an oil company Skoda supports

I think,from reading the oil tread on SCN, the Halfords stuff is actually made by Comma, is Fully Synthetic and meets all the spec. I personally use the Millers stuff, but as a cheaper alternative the Halfrauds oil is OK. Others on here may say use Castrol oil but it only comes in 4 litre bottles, you need more to do an oil change.
