Good supplier for Mobil1 0W-40 Oil?

Post by ajsl » Wed Feb 22, 2006 5:22 pm

Can someone recommend me a good place to buy some Mobil1 0W-40 oil? I need about 6.5l for my S4 (though I can't remember exactly right now).

www.opieoils.co.uk A lot of car forums get discount with them such as this one!! 8)

I get oil from there through my TT owners club access. I don't know how you do it with RS246.com. Hopefully one of the mods can advise.

Good discounts from there and they deliver.

Costco do 5 litres for 35 quid i think.

I bought a litre from Guidlford Audi the other day - £16.75 - sure it used to be 11 quid

Cheers guys I'll check those out.

Do we have a discount link for Opieoils? I see the owner has posted here so I'd like to support him if possible?

Is there a difference in the Mobil 1 0W-40 fully synth that's advertised as being for "turbo diesels" (and yes I realise we don't have a turbo diesel ;) )

Bought Mobil1 from http://www.oil-store.co.uk before and always got good service. Not sure if the prices include VAT or not though.

Diesel motor oils usually have a detergent in them, its not good to use as it could wash all the carbon build ups, it will sound terrible, trash it and a bit like flushing your engine constantly ... :thumbsdown:
