Does it meet the requirements stated in your user manual for the car? Now at the point when I learn something new something old is lost out the other side !
Now retired so it doesn't matter anymore.
Freelander now gone.

Why do you think its the wrong oil? what does your owners manual say ?

The spec for mine is Ford WSS-M2C934-B C1 5w-30 and I use Smith & Allan Momentum. Why pay more when any oil that meets the spec is fine. Jules
