Common questions
What oil does a Vauxhall take?
It depends on the engine. Across the 24 Vauxhall engines we hold, the approvals named are GM dexos2, GM dexos1 Gen2, PSA B71 2010, PSA B71 2312, Stellantis FPW9.55535/03, OV0401547 and others, mostly in 5W-30, 5W-40, 0W-30. Find your engine above, or enter your registration for the exact match.
How much oil does a Vauxhall take?
Between 3 and 6.6 litres for an oil and filter change, depending on the engine — each engine's figure is listed above with its source. Fill to the dipstick's maximum mark rather than emptying a whole can in.
Where is the oil specification in a Vauxhall handbook?
Usually in the "Technical data", "Capacities and specifications" or "Engine oil" section near the back, which names the approval code and viscosity, and the oil-change capacity with filter. The figures above link to the handbooks we found them in.
