For info. Bought 5 litres of semi synthetic oil in Halfords tonight for the XJ and was presented with a £20 set of screwdrivers for nowt. Don't know if they doing this nationwide but deffo in Newcastle, not a bad deal if you need the screwdrivers. (a bollox one if you don't though).

P

I got no screwdrivers and only bought it last week same stuff aswell.

hmmm what type of oil did u buy? i.e just genral motor oil or actual motorcycle oil? i only ask cos i got 5 liters of 10w40 semi synth and was told not to use it in my bike cos it would ruin the clutch!!....been reading up on it on the net and there seems to be a bit of a debate going on.....some say motorcyle industry is just ripping us off making us buy expensive oil etc......i paid 14 quid for 5lt of 10w40 car oil and 16 quid for 3lt of motorcycle oil...so the question is does it really matter?

(edit) NO SREWDRIVERS EITHER LOL

Bought the Halfords motorcycle oil (£23.99 for 5L), as you say is dearer than the car oil. Am not convinced there is any difference but not willing to chance it. Have also been told that car oil will ruin the clutch.

You should've got the screwdrivers, offer is on their website!
