Watch: Understanding the right oil for your workshop, including EV

Castrol has highlighted the importance of selecting the right oil, for the right car in a training webinar for The Blend.

Castrol’s Simon Gurney delivered the training content via a webinar to the Garage Hive community after sponsors of The Blend, Castrol and The Race Group, were unable to attend the conference due to the Queen’s passing.

In modern automotive, all garages are tasked with correct oil selection, this becomes challenging and particularly frustrating, with various oil grades and a broad range of Acea’s, from low SAPS to mid SAPS, fuel efficient to non-fuel efficient – we find a regularly asked question in many social communities or forums.

Michelle Rice, IWS general manager in UK & France for The Race Group Part of Certas Energy said: “The interpretation of oil data used in the workshops often leads to incorrect or non-approved specification oil fitted without realising it.

“Workshops need to be supported by their supplier and oil brand to ensure they have the complete training and back up should anything go wrong.

“This year we’ve supported two members of our Castrol Service network when their customers experienced engine failure, because the workshop provided Castrol Guarantee to their customers, Castrol carried out a full investigation and supported the consumer with the evidence to claim the repaired directly with the car manufactures as the workshop had fitted the right Castrol oil.”

The Race Group part of Certas Energy are Castrol’s Ambassador distributor partner in the UK, supporting independent workshops with more than just a litre of oil, with a consultative approach you can access technical support, an oil survey, workshop equipment, improve oil efficiency and we give you the knowledge to ensure you fit the right oil every time.
