V6 AND oil AND change on the search does bring up Which oil? About half way down first page and its from January this year.

The lubricants expert has a thread on this.

So I can get the Nissan 10/30 from Ebay or go with the 15/40. Cheers.

10/30 from ebay good buy,remember you need more than 5 litres so better to buy 2 or even 3x 5 litres,would do for next oil change,if your not happy with buying from ebay,go for 10/40 which is readily available at any motor factors,the oil now normally does both petrol and diesel engines,should state sf for petrol and cf for diesel ,most say both.
i am going to order some of the oil off ebay,probably a bulk order :wink:

The most sensible buy is the 4x5litres for the basic carriage charge.

As you need 6 or so litres for a change that gives you 3 changes and a bit left over for topping up and at the lowest price per litre.

I got the 10/30 Nissan Oil API SL-CF. £31.75 for 20 litres including p&p. (Im a petrol Bongo)

From the comments on forum and Fact Sheets I would be happy to put 10/40 in but with 10/30 available at that price I'd rather use that.

I've just done the same, my local motor factors has 10w/30 but the cheapeat was £10.99 for 5 litres. So i think this Ebay buy is a bargain. :)

By the way I have a petrol Bongo en route to the UK. :D
