as title says in my dt manual it says to get 10w30  but the shops round me dont sell it anymore so iv been using 10w40 and now iv been on ebay and they sell it on there so im wondering if its worth me spending an extra couple of quid to get the 10w30 stuff

petrol stations usually have their own brands and they often have rare oils available..

try at shell or statoil if you have those over there

i've seen some gearbox oils that are 80/xx that probably could be used
