Fraze New Member Jun 23, 2013 #1 Hi All, Can anyone advise me on the best air filter for a TD5 and where to get one please? Also what's the best oil/grade to put in the engine/gearbox? I know this has probably been done to death on here, but any help much appreciated. Fraze

Fraze New Member Jun 24, 2013 #4 I was thinking 5W 40, but then read somewhere that 5W 30 Semi synthetic was the best for the engine?
Jamespepperpot New Member Jun 24, 2013 #5 I got told ACEA A1 was the right one when I bought some from island 4x4 and they seem to know their stuff.

Fraze New Member Jun 24, 2013 #6 I've never heard of ACEA A1. Who makes it and where can you get it from?
Jamespepperpot New Member Jun 25, 2013 #7 Loads of people make it I would assume. Euro car parts are normally pretty good for any type of oil you need
