A nice fresh set of Bosch Duraterm glow plugs for a 1.6 I-Dtec Honda Civic. Starting seems like no issue regardless of the one that's broken, but it does shake a little more than normal for the first few seconds. Warning light shows broken glow plug.

Is there any chance that you have just not noticed it before because it was a really really quiet fan? Perhaps the bearings have worn slightly and now it sounds louder / more obvious? Or something like that?

It's nothing too fancy. It's an old 90s Peugeot. 😃 The idea was to just create an overall general list though for people wanting to keep an old car on the road. Specially rarer ones that don't have a big following and support from specialist companies dedicated to them.

Morning / Afternoon / Evening all! I have an old car currently (27 years old now). That I am starting to put a lot of effort into getting into a good shape. I am trying to create a list of things that are worth buying now, before they start disappearing completely! The list I can think of off...

I wonder when / if the EU and UK will get Valvoline Restore and Protect. That'd likely tip the scale and knock Mobil off the top spot.

Hard to know. Have a play around with this website. There are so many variants of 504, 502, 507 etc from what I can tell. Select the specifications and click on the Volkswagen one and you'll see which ones they have on there that you can compare. https://online.lubrizol.com/relperftool/pc.html

My service kit for my Civic 1.6 diesel. Found an oil that I'll likely stick to long term now. Look at the list of certifications on this one!

You are very correct. Just missed top spot by 1%!

Excellent collection of data as usual SuperBuick! I have once again created a bump chart of the last 5 years, and a pie chart of the percentage of oil changes per brand for people to peruse. 🙂 Here is the bump chart. Noteable things. Mobil still hangs on to top spot, but as you can see in...

I'll see if I can find an pictures online of the sumps or something and that may confirm it. 👌 Good shout though and well worth a check!

That's something I was worried about but my Dads is an early 2019 with the smaller sump volume which I guess is prior to them changing to a wet belt. 🤔 There is an earlier small sump and a newer larger sump from what I can tell based on the fill volumes so I'd think that was the change point...

Hi All. I am trying to make things easier when ordering oil for the 4 cars that I service in our household. I'm also trying to buy a single type because I can buy large 20l boxes / tubs rather than 4 x 5l ones. These are the cars, and what oils the "Castrol What Oil" website recommends for...

1000 miles into an oil change on a 1.6 diesel. Still looking impressively clean for a diesel.

Hello all 🙂 I hope you're well. I am looking at buying the first full service kit for my Moms car. It's a Suzuki Ignis with a 1.2 petrol engine with a timing chain. It has direct and port injection I believe. The manual is very vague with what the oil requirement is. You can basically put...

This oil has been in my 1.6 I-Dtec diesel about 100 miles. The last oil was in for about 8000 miles so I'm impressed with how clean this engine is running. Usually people just accept that diesel oil goes black pretty much straight away.
