Technical Engine Oil (Help!)

[slickkon]

Hi,

I drive a 2009 Fiat bravo Tjet 150. I just came back from a holiday and had my car loaned to my relative. out of good will, i found out that they sent the car for an oil change for me.

When I looked at the extra leftover oil, to my horror.. it was an ACEA A3 (Amsoil European Car Formula Full SAPS image link below) instead of the recommended C3.

Can anyone please asvise if there are any adverse effects if i left the oil in and drove with i until next oil change? (4000km). Or must I drain and refill with ACEA C3 oil.





Please help..

Hi Varesecrazy,

Only the diesel models have the DPF. So don't worry about that, I would personally have it serviced early using the correct Petronas selenia oil ?
