I was told by my dealer to use Shell Helix Semi Synthetic 10 / 30 or 5 /30. Apparantly it was developed for Subarus.
It a ******* to get from the shops though, and I ended up buying mine from the dealer

I couldn't find 10 / 30 or 5 / 30 anywhere. I agree the other Shell oil is in the Shell garages though, maybe as it's small ?

My local dealer routinely uses Castrol semi synthetic, is this right? Even Halfords fully synthetic would be better than this?
