Still over priced it's available elsewhere for less than that It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Their usual price is around £18 for a litre for the Professional grade. This is the spot on correct spec. for the D4 and what Guy Salmon use. Seems dirt cheap to me

And it took 10 seconds to find that it is not the same oil and it doesn’t meet the spec for DPF fitted D4s.

This thread from Opie oils gives recommendations. I asked for help recently with recommended oils and they kindly sent a link to all the oils for a 2016MY (with DPF obviously) . There is a link near the end of the thread they provided that gives all the oils that meet the spec required. At the beginning of the thread there is a discount code you can use. I think that will then beat the price you quote above for the same oil.

Worth noting the Shell Helix oil on Carpartsforless noted above is not for DPFs . The Shell Helix AF oil is £47+ on their siteGary

Plus an OX776D Mahle filter from ebay or AF gives you the kit for a driveway oil change for less than £65 meeting the 'Land Rover recommend CASTROL' filler cap advert.Prev: 2015 D4 HSE Corris Grey
