Engine oil for Ford Fiesta 2006, 1.4

[GlassMirror]

You sure that the Figo's engine is the same 1.4 Duratec as used in the Fiesta?

It's the exact same Duratec unit also called the Zetec-SE or Sigma engine. My 2012 Figo is based on the Fiesta you have and is what the Polo Vivo is to the 9n3 Polo. The exact same car just with some cosmetic changes and some obvious cost cutting in the interior materials but under the skin it's the exact same car

Thanks, actually the main service is replacing a leaking radiator, I just thought I will just do the oil as well.

Remember plugs and filters...

Some feedback, The Fiesta has three options for engine oil, the recommended is 5W30 and alternatives are 5W40 and the 10W40. I ended up going with the 5W40 Total quartz 9000 purely because of the price.

I only did the radiator and oil/oil filter change, I will do the others later on.

Thanks all for the inputs.

Ahh engine oil, one of the greatest if not the greatest debates in motoring.

Accustomed to the usual nonsensical debate of this topic elsewhere on the web I had high hopes for Mybb to be much more sensible and reach a amicable conclusion swiftly.

But nope, just as **** as everywhere else.

Anyway, as you were.
