How often should I change my oil?

Always consult and follow your manufacturer's manual for the best guidance on when to change your engine oil. Factors like driving conditions and mileage also influence the interval.

What does API SE mean?

API SE is a specification set by the American Petroleum Institute, indicating a certain level of performance for gasoline engines. Always ensure that the oil you are using matches the specifications recommended in your vehicle's handbook.

Can I use this oil as a top-up?

Yes, if your vehicle requires API SE specification, you can use this oil to top up. However, always ensure the oil meets your vehicle's requirements as specified in the owner's manual.

Where can I find the oil level?

Open the bonnet, locate the oil dipstick, and pull it out. The oil level should be between the minimum and maximum markers on the dipstick.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Compatibility: This oil is specifically designed for naturally aspirated diesel and petrol engines that specify API SE.
  2. Oil Level Check: Ensure your car is on level ground, and the engine is cool and not running, simply open the bonnet, locate the bright handle of your oil dipstick and gently pull the dipstick. Clean the dipstick to identify the oil level markers then fully reinsert the dipstick and pull it out once more. The oil shown on the dipstick should sit between the high and low markers. If your oil is below the low marker, you should top up with the manufacturer's recommended engine oil grade and specifications.
  3. Oil Change: Changing your engine oil depends on the type of vehicle, the mileage, driving styles and driving conditions. Always consult and follow your manufacturer's manual for the best guidance on when to change your engine oil and what type of oil to use. Alternatively, you can book your vehicle for an oil change at your local garage.
