Engine Oil
Hi,
I have 10W/40 Enhanced Mineral Oil in the sump of my Pug 205 1.6 GTI. Will 10W/40 Semi Synthetic Oil be compatible with the existing oil? Thanks |

These are not descriptions that you see on oils in the US. Which might be unfortunate... here in the US you basically have to check the standards listed on the bottle to have any idea what sort of oil you are buying. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.

Maybe says SM/CF ? You want to use an oil that has that (or newer) designation. |

Hence, I bought the Semi Synthetic Oil I note that on both bottles (the oil in the sump, and the newer oil bought) it says, amongst other things: API and ACEA, but gives no numerical values |
