Service time again, so yesterday popped down to the local factors for a set of filters. Noted they now had Castrol oils, as I wanted some GTD Magnetec, thought that would save me a trip elsewhere. But hold on, the range has been revamped, and its all in 4 litre cans. Now I can't remember whether they used to be 4.5 or 5 litre, whichever a full one brought the car just to max on the dipstick. No way am I buying a 4L and rip-off price 1L to finish the job.
Off the Halfords, again mostly the new range in 4L, but a couple of older cans still one the shelf, a 4.5L GTD magnetec and a 5L of normal GTD. Anyway, Halfords own fully synth diesel oil was 1/3 off at £22 / 5L, so I got that instead.
Anyone know whether Castrol oils used to be all 4.5L or 5L?
They lost me as a customer with that "marketing" tactic of 4L cans.
