Hein Gericke Oil?
I have read a couple of old threads about people using the Hein Gericke Oil and wanted to know if its any good? I can get 4L of 10/40w with a free Oil filter for £23. (You may already know about that deal) This seems really cheap for 4L of oil so I want to know if its any good and what people think if it.
Here is the oil im talking about - http://www.hein-gericke.co.uk/techni...-40-14282.html The filter is their own brand filter so im unsure of how good they are and whether I should consider using it. Thanks. |

Re: Hein Gericke Oil
Apparently Hein Gericke own brand oil is in fact re-branded Motul.

Re: Hein Gericke Oil?
s'cuse the Hijack, but I just wanted to check that Halfords oil is actually ok? I notice in the sticky thread Sid mentions API SF or SG but on the Halfords website it says the oil is API SL. Does that make a difference?
Cheers! |
