Title: Millers 5w30
Post by: TomGTI on January 08, 2013, 06:14:02 pm

This isn't another oil thread but I am in need of some Millers 5w30 long life/fully synthetic engine oil I've just checked my dipstick and I am in need of a top up.

I need to know if anyone can tell me where I can buy it from and which petrol station are likely to have it in stock Asda filling station, morrisons petrol station, Bp, jet, tesco or Shell?

Thanks I'd rather pick it up rather than wait for it to be delivered from online as I need to use the car.

I believe that halfords now do millers. Check Millers website for a stockist.

I had to buy a litre top up today, a place near me sells Millers, but opted for Shell Helix 5w30 full synth as alot of people say its as good as the castrol (which i cant find in any shop)

Is Millers oil any good, never used it....

Yeah alot of informed people say, try to match your last oil make when serviced, especially the value: 5w30 or 0w30....
