  1. 6 months goes quickly - time for #Oil #service on #VW #GolfGTI with #EA888 engine

    Completed with 0 major hassles - didn't spill any major amount of used oil in yard this time round, and #BGS funnel attachment (72214) is a gamechanger, fits directly in place of oil filler cap rather than having to hold funnel with thin end over opening in one hand and oil container in the other.

    Was even able to pour oil in near perfect stream without splashing like my dad used to in 1970s/80s - to be fair he did have a bit more practice, not only did cars need 3 month oil changes back then, he also worked for #Castrol in research labs testing #rheology so was dealing with the stuff every day 😁

  10. Castrol ya no es solo un aceite. Es una infraestructura mundial que acaba de ser comprada por un fondo de Nueva York por más de 9 400 millones de euros. El motor sigue girando, pero el mapa acaba de cambiar. 🛢️🔧 #Castrol #BP #Stonepeak

  12. The first oil featuring a soluble friction modifier. Released in 1966, though the patent was filed earlier in the 1960s. An intriguing contribution from Castrol, marking the beginning of all MoDTC-containing oils

  13. Decided to go for 6 month #oil change (recommended for #EA888 - oil is worked hard in this engine; regularly goes over 100° C, car had previously been driven short distances around #London by lads at dealer before it was sold to me)

    Got up early to visit #GSF and #EuroCarParts to collect oil, filter, vacuum oil extractor, 32mm socket for #oilfilter both from #Sealey and used #Laser tools 3/8" ratchet I'd recently got for wheel bearing job.

    Was quite easy to extract oil through dipstick tube (5,7 litres of it!)

    Old filter was from Crosland (Euro Car Parts own brand), goodness knows where oil was from! Date code Dec 2024, so at least car *had* been serviced that year..

    Replaced with #MANN filter and #Castrol Edge LL oil (made to VW standard)

  18. This ad (for USA market) probably wouldn't fly today, but in 2009 #Castrol and #BP were leaning in to the fact they are a #UK brand and our national #comedy #stereotypes 😁

  24. Macmillan, from the Macmillan clan, ya know? Scotland, right? Nah - this is pure U-S-of-A. True Americana in every drop. Forgotten level of American craftsmanship. Closed factory, naphthenic crude. Legendary oil - full VOA here, don’t miss it.

  27. Landrover Discovery 4 oil and filter change done. Contrary to owner’s manual, I used 5W40 C3 oil as recommended by the #lrtime YouTube channel. Quite some work to remove the protection plate before you can access the drain plug. Luckily no considerable metal pieces found in the filter or the oil. Should be good to go for another 10.000 km’s. #lr4 #diy #carmechanic #castrol
