Hallo Clem

The information given by the various members is most certainly very valuable.

I guess you should take your time look around compare and drive as many of them as possible / 4.5 and 4.8.

It will then come down to your personal preference and the price which you are prepared to pay. :salute:

What is the service intervals and service costs compared to the diesel patrols..?
On my 4.2 diesel I do an oil change every 5000km. How often do you need to change the oil on a petrol, 15k km?
