Fluids
Fuel
Always use the following recommended fuels:
Petrol engines
Use unleaded petrol with a minimum octane rating of
95 RON to ENN 228 specification.
In an emergency (and only if the correct fuel is
unavailable), lower octane rated fuel can be used for
very limited periods of moderate, low speed
motoring, provided engine 'knocking' does not occur.
Fuels of 90 RON is used in certain markets; 90 RON
fuel can be used regularly ONLY if the engine has
been tuned specifically to suit low octane fuel.
Certain markets use fuel containing a 23% Ethanol
additive.
K1.8 and KV6 engines are also available for use with
a low octane leaded fuel specification in some
markets.
Diesel engines
Use a good quality diesel fuel or automotive gas oil
(AGO) conforming to EN 590 specification.
It is important that the sulphur content of diesel fuel
does not exceed 0.3%.
Ensure the fuel filter element is changed at the
recommended intervals.

+ MAINTENANCE, MAINTENANCE, Fuel
Filter - Diesel.
Brake Fluid
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid. DO NOT use brake fluid
of a different specification.
PAS fluid
Use Texaco 9226 fluid.Anti-freeze solutions
The overall anti-freeze concentration should not fall,
by volume, below 50% to ensure that the anti-
corrosion properties of the coolant are maintained.
Anti-freeze concentrations greater than 60% are not
recommended as cooling efficiency will be impaired.
Use Havoline Extended Life Coolant (XLC), or any
ethylene glycol based anti-freeze (containing no
methanol) with only Organic Acid Technology (OAT)
corrosion inhibitors, to protect the cooling system.
CAUTION: No other anti-freeze should be used
with Havoline Extended Life Coolant.
The cooling system should be drained, flushed and
refilled with the correct amount of anti-freeze
solution at the intervals given on the Service
Maintenance Check Sheet.
After filling with anti-freeze solution, attach a warning
label to a prominent position on the vehicle stating
the type of anti-freeze contained in the cooling
system to ensure that the correct type is used for
topping-up.
The following recommended quantities of anti-freeze
will provide frost protection to -36 °C (-33 °F):
Engine – Td4
Engine – K1.8
Engine – KV6

Lubrication
The engine and other lubricating systems are filled
with high- performance lubricants giving prolonged
life.
CAUTION: Always use a high quality oil of the
correct viscosity range in the engine. The use of
oil of the incorrect specification can lead to high
oil and fuel consumption and ultimately to
damaged components.
Oil to the correct specification contains additives
which disperse the corrosive acids formed by
combustion and prevent the formation of sludge
which can block the oil ways. Additional oil additives
should not be used.
Always adhere to the recommended servicing
intervals.
Engine oil
Engine oil viscosity / temperature ranges are
indicated in the following table:
a0W/30; 5W/30
b0W/40, 50, 60; 5W/40, 50, 60
c10W/30
d10W/40, 50, 60
Engine oil – Td4 engine
Use 0W/30 or 5W/40, 50, 10W/30, 40, 60 oil meeting
ACEA A3/B3 specifications, and having a viscosity
band recommended for the temperature range of
your locality. Where oils to these European
specifications are not available, well known brands of
oils meeting API SH quality should be used.Engine oil – K1.8 engine
Use a 10W/40 oil meeting specification ACEA A2 or
A3.
Engine oil – KV6 engine – Non NAS models
Use a 10W/40 oil meeting specification ACEA A2 or
A3.
Engine oil – KV6 engine - NAS models
Use a 5W/40 fully synthetic oil meeting specification
ACEA A3. Where oils to these European
specifications are not available, well known brands of
oils meeting API SH quality should be used.
Gearbox oil
Use of gearbox oils other than those specified may
result in serious damage to the gearbox.
Manual Gearbox – PG1 and Getrag
Use OPEL B 0400063 for refill or topping-up.
Automatic Gearbox – JATCO
Use Texaco N402 fluid for refill or topping-up.
Intermediate Reduction Drive
Texaco S5 75W90; Synthetic oil or equivalent,
meeting: API GL5
Rear Differential
Multigear 80W/90 ETL; Specification: API GL5
Gear linkage - Manual
Use grease containing 3% Molybdenum Disulphide.
General Greasing
Use Multipurpose Lithium Base Grease NLGI
consistency No. 2.
Bonnet latch
Lubricate cable and latch with oil.
