Just chatting with a neighbour about engine oils (as you do) and
remembering how, after an oil change, a sticker would be put on your
engine to show what oil had been used. It used to be helpful back then
- I would think even more now with synthetics, semi-synthetics and
mineral oils in use. Has anyone seen this recently?


Many makers these days specify the brand and type of oil to be used
exclusively. Last time mine was serviced, they included a top up pack of
the correct oil - a litre in a plastic bag with disposable gloves and
tissues. ;-)
