    Hi all,
    I have a 2002 1.4 206 HDI that is to be serviced soon and am a little
    confused about which type of oil it uses. In the owners manual there
    is a list of various recommended oils by esso, total, etc.. however at
    the bottom in the small print it says "DO NOT USE SYNTHETIC BASED OIL
    ON THE 1.4 HDI ENGINE".

    Now, I'm reading this to mean all synthetic based oils ie only use
    mineral based oils. Is this correct?

    Many thanks in advance

    It means that you can not use oil that is either sythetic base or fully
    synthetic. You should only use stanard mineral based oils. ITs
    good...its cheaper!
