yearly or 10k, whichever comes sooner.

if you can, do it yourself. you can do it for as low as £25 all in, not counting tools or labour time.

if you want to use castrol, go with castrol edge ll (longlife) vw504 spec.

but really any vw504 compatible oil will be fine. i go with whatevers cheapest, eg. i bought 4 bottles of 4 litre tesco vw504 oil (made by tetrosyl) that i got for £14 each.
mannol do cheap oil thatll be good too.
