very good point, oil is ordered!! thanks all.

ok, so your damned if you do and damned if you dont!!!!

so the penrite hpr 10/50 should be ok then, seems to match what a few are saying, synthetic and high zinc?

ok so ive been on the penrite site and the hpr10w/50 seems to be the way to go, couldn't find a high zinc synthetic 20w/50!

the penrite appears to be only mineral?

what happened to electrical system?

ive just been out to get some, no luck at euros or halfords so i guess its on line purchase!

isnt it just!!!!! is that another p38 on the wirral or something newer?? also been recommended high zinc 20w50, would that be the same as 20/50 dino that you say stear clear of?

cheers, all added to the list.

cheers lads, getting there on the to do list. although it is a very clean low mileage car there isnt a lot of service history, any jobs you would recommend doing as a precaution, the last owner said it was serviced every year but who knows. im obviously doing oil and filter, its booked in at...

any preference for filters?

cheers, ill look for high zink, i live chester way so dont think any need for 10w50, its not that bad here!!!!

lol really!!!! no they are good as gold down there, shame they not land rover specialist, they just an ordinary service garage but good enough for things like oil change.

i was wondering what your opinions are as far as the best engine oil for 4.0 p38, 2001, also best filters? if i supply oil and filter my local garage will do the change for £20! rather do this than have them use there own oil.

just noticed yesterday that i'm pretty sure it goes away when turning!? also been told that i would have to change the whole hub and not just bearing, £350+vat!!!!! is this correct?
