Default Oil change
Hi everyone

Got a 54 plate ranger 2.5 xlt covered over 240,000 miles and needs a service soon what oil do you reccomend i out in euro car parts reccomend a 5w30 but i was thinking something a little thicker now might be better also would you reccomend a fully synthetic?



Many Thanks
