On the LCR 225, what combo do you guys tend to run?

I've got a fair bit of GTX Magnatec in the garage so hoping that's one of the preferred options..


Cheers, Tom

I have the LCR 210

I use Millers fully synthetic and V Power (Optimax before that)
You'll find that most LCR owners use V Power or BP Ultimate due to the car needing 97 RON + fuel
Not sure what others are using for oil though but would advise not to scrimp on the oil or fuel.
Millers is what my independant VAG garage recommends and they look after some serious Leons and others
They look after RobDons and Songmans....enough said!!

My LCR uses NO oil (really!) so only gets changed at services. Think they use VAG fully synthetic oil which would be recommended.

Any good fully synthetic oil should be good, Mobil 1, Duckhams Q etc. - don't think magnatec is so would steer clear of it!
