Hello all, I just wanted to say thanks for all the helpful info and
suggestions about the correct oil to use for my location, I believe
I'm going to use Castrol GTX 20w50 (that's what I used in my previous
VW's and they enjoyed it) during the warm months and 10w40 during the
cold months and I'm going to replace the washers everytime, providing
I can get them which shouldn't be a problem it sounds like.
Thanks again, Tony
