right along with the grade 10w/40 there is another code something like this though not the same as printed in my punto manual (obviously yours will be different ) then check the oil your buying meets this

if using non original SAE 5w/40 Products, Oils with a minimum ACEA A3 Specifications

you could always order the oil from shop4parts

if you unsure ring them they should help you out never used carlube adn TBH i wouldn't skimp

i know other brands are suitable as long as it meets the required spec, you should be fine

you'd probably get a better response if this was moved to the Bravo/Brava section

Halfords oil
Its decent oil and i think u still get the free set of screwdrivers

I've just done an oil change with my car with this stuff, its smooth and much more happy with clean oil

Apprently Halfrauds oil is madeby shell
