Carlube Triple R Semi/Fully Synthetic 5L for £12 at Tesco

[olihodgson]

Just nipped in for a card and spotted what I think is pretty good oil down to £12 for 5L, may interest some people.
I saw 10w40 and 5w30 but they had more, I just saw the end promotion stand.
I used this in my Accord Type R and seemed pretty good stuff!

Ive used it in the 172 before and it was fine, im not 100% but i think a couple of specialists may use it if someone doesnt want dearer stuff

Is the fully synthetic the same price?

 

[olihodgson]

Yeah all the same. Some people on hotdealsuk are saying their local store was selling 4 litre bottles but mine was 5litre.

 

[olihodgson]

This went Down to £10 after that, and some stores were £5!
Haven't put it in the clio though, got some Fuchs Titan Fully Syn from Opie in the end, live about a mile from them and they did a good deal.
30-31% off at eurocarparts at the minute too on oil

And I don't live in Truro. I did, when I signed up to cliosport, with my valver, when I was 18, 8 years ago!

Needs to be 5/40 in a 182, damn!!

Wouldn't bother, Durex Play lube would probably offer more protection for your engine.

Yh I've got 5w40 in her now with the Fuchs, previous owner was running 0w40 but I'm not so keen on that!
No 5w40 carlube though!
