What oil?

[TDMusic]

Hey guys,

Seems like a pretty stupid question but everywhere seems to give different ideas on what oil to use. I have a 2006 1.2L HTP Skoda Fabia, i'm going to swap the oil out, i have been using 5w40 to top the engine up as recommended by a friend but want to ensure that i put the right stuff in. Any recommendations or can i stick with 5w40 (although apparently they have a PD version, should i be using this?!)

Edit: By the way i'm not one for using premium oil etc on the car, i just need to do a swap and keep the car happy, it's just a little run around )

5W40 will be just fine, it's not a TDI so PD oil is a waste of money.

Thank you very much!

Whatever you choose, check that you're not paying more than you could for the Quantum stuff. It can be had surprisingly cheaply, delivered to your door, lately. £16.49 here. Buy two and you should have enough for three oil changes on your car.
