Post by: kristopha_100 on 08 February 2010, 18:52:36

My Omega is low on oil, anyone know which one to buy ?

I've got a 1998 R reg petrol with 134,000 miles on it.

Thanks

Someone will be along soon to tell you about the Vauxhall trade club 4 for 3 offer ;), but any quality brand will do for now.

At least a litre then top up until level with top mark on dipstick.  Do NOT be tempted to overfill!!

Hope your motors ok running with oil level that low !!
