I try to use the best oil I can for the 300 Tdi, whatever the cost. Last year the local motor factor showed me Comma semi-synthetic oil ( as recomended in his 'bible' ) and as I have heard that the other company products tend to win quite a few reveiws I used it. Seems OK; certainly seemed to make the engine a lot looser and responsive at start when I changed it. I wonder what peoples thoughts are on the oil as I will reuse it if it seems to be favorable. I used to use Magnatec Castrol for a long time. Have heard synthetics tend to seek out weakness in the seals and hence more leaks( due to capilliary action ! )
