Dexelia Ultra substitute?
Hi everyone. Almost out of oil, and cant buy the original oil from dealer until monday.

Can you recommend any good oil that will mix with the existing one? Fully or half synthetic?

thanks!!

Guessing you're in Europe. Correct?

If so, I'm pretty sure the recommendation is to use an ACEA A5 rated 5W-30. I think all ACEA A5 oils are at least synthetic blends. So, if you can find one that isn't marked "fully" synthetic, you should be fine.
