2015 Range Rover Vogue SDV8 Santorini Black

Choice of oil for sdv8

Afternoon, any chance anyone has used petronas syntium 5000 fj 5w-30 oil in the sdv8 as it meets all the specs and is a good well known brand.When it gets the 12 month service they use the Shell Helix Ultra Professional AF-L Engine Oil - 5W-30 and i was thinking of using the petronas syntium 5000 fj 5w-30 for an inbetween 6 month oil service which it currently does not get .
Any thoughts or experience of using this oil would be appreciated. Thanks

If the Petronas oil is a Fully Synthetic Engine Oil and says it is ACEA C1 Low SAPS Ford WSS-M2C934 then you can safely use it. If it doesn’t you shouldn’t use it.

If it meets the specifications required it doesn't matter what name is on the label, thats just preference or marketing...
