As the subject Sons car no hand book Need engine oil type and capacity what cheapish oil would the panel recommend Regards afaik all fords are now recommended to use ford e oil 5/30. which is neither expensive nor cheap from your ford dealer, which is also the best place to get the oil filter. There is no good reason to go anywhere else for your oil and filter for a ford, unless of course there is no dealer nearby, in which case buy the best you can afford from your convenient shop who will have a list.

Halfords sell it in a Blue bottle with 'Ford' written on it. I normally get the morris equiv. locally which is a bit cheaper. I get my filters from the Ford dealer since it's the same price as Hal-frauds, unlike the Oil.

You're correct in everything except the grade, it's a 5W/30 and Halfords normally sell if for £24.99 per 5L, but they have had 25% off recently on it. Therefore, I paid £18.74 for 5L on 14/1/10 which is now safely contained within the sump of my wife's Fusion TDCi. You may want to see if the offer remains valid. Hendy Ford in Winchester wanted about £29+VAT, the Fusion filter was £11.60+VAT from them. D.

Looks like the offers have changed as it's back to £25 http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...egoryId_165581 The Magnatec at 4 Litres is almost £30
