Of course engine oil is specific to the vehicle and engine and version.
You haven't mentioned what vehicle this is? Petrol / diesel what engine 1.2 EB2****, 1.5 DV5, 1.6 DV6??? Better still if you want the correct grade AND specification you'll need to provide the last 8 alpha numeric from your VIN.

Apologies for intruding but I have searched the handbook and cannot find the oil spec for my vehicle. I have also searched on-line and found (even for the same year of my vehicle) differing results!
What please is the correct oil specification for my 2021 C3 Aircross automatic - Vin VF72RHNS1M4298754.
Thankyou,

Hi, your vehicle requires explicitly 0W20 grade oil that meets PSA specification B71 2010.
It's a 1.2 petrol c3. . Stupid question how do I locate VIN number??Juan Sheet wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 10:04 pm Of course engine oil is specific to the vehicle and engine and version.

The VIN is found from outside the car on the bottom nearside corner of the windscreen - it's als shown in your certificate of registration if you are in the UK.
