Oil Boffin required

How do I know if my 2013 is (with DPF) and needs 934-B spec. oil or is (without DPF) and needs 913-B or 913-C.?
I could only find 913 in Halfords.
I know someone out there will know Laughing

Where did you look ?

Just about all the big names make a C1 oil - eg Shell, Millers, Motul, Castrol, Texaco, Fuchs

AJ918 beat me to it Jules

Word of warning to the OP

if you simply type your vehicle reg number and search for engine oil then the websites software sometimes gets it wrong -
Just now one website included in its list of suitable oils an unsuitable Fuchs Titan oil for my car.

Better to double check the oil specs before purchase. Jules

Funnily enough I was looking for some C1 oil myself this afternoon for my 2012 SD4 Evoque. My normal motor factor had this: https://granvilleoil.com/prodInfo?pID=778 but at £16 something plus vat for 5 litres, I felt it was too cheap! You need 6 litres anyway for an oil change and I’m going for this from Opie oils for my oil change. https://www.opieoils.co.uk/pv-98356-motul-...e-oil.aspx Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

These are the oils Opie oils recommend for a 2012 SD4 Evoque which will be the same as an FL2 of the same year.
