Hi all. My 03 diesel Lux has an after market turbo fitted. What oil should I run to protect both motor and turbo. I have just bought the vehicle and I love it. Jim

No need for special oil. Any good quality Diesel engine oil will do the job. The biggest thing to remember is to let the engine idle for a minute or two before shutting the engine down, to let the turbo cool and spool down.
