Had a look and I think it is time for a service never done one before so any tips hints would be gratefully appreciated .I was ready to buy this oil

when ecp said this would be better
http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/c...gineoils/5w40-engine-oil/?521776031&0&cc5_248
which would you use and why do some use 5w-30 and others 10w-30 which is best for a td4 that has done 68000 miles ?
And lastly I brought this service kit

Is there anything else I need to service it ? the fuel filter is on its way thanks
 
Avoid 5w30 oil, it's too thin for any FL1 engine. 5w40 full synthetic or 10w40 semi synthetic are fine.
You'll need a 36mm single hex socket to remove the oil filter cap. ;)
