    It doesn't say in the book, I did try asking Samrt of Bristol but never got a reply. Dave topped his up with some of my 5/40 fully synth from my city coupe, don't see why it would be any different, it's Halfords own and they sell it from the Diesel shelf too.

        My handbook says (and this is how it is shown in the book)

        Diesel Engines (same for both 50kw & 70kw)
        SAE
        10W-40
        SAE
        5W-30

        All the petrol ones (inc 130kw BRABUS) list SAE 10W-30 only. No idea why it lists two oils, and there isn't anything else in there to say which is the prefered. I guess its either / or!
