10/40 comma super diesel mineral in mine, exceeds the spec required of the engine. A lot of this synthetic stuff was just designed to extend service intervals so the manufacturers could say how reliable their engines were.
2.1td exec estate.

First car I had that took 10 or 15W40 was an '87 2.0 Montego which I ran to 215,000 miles. Never put 20/50 in the engine,but made the mistake of putting it in the gearbox after misinterpreting HBoLs instruction to use 'engine oil'. (In my mind engine oil, without the spec, still meant 20/50).
Took it 2 days to blow the gearbox oil seals.
