Oil Guide

Engine oil, gearbox oil, coolant and grease by vehicle

Greyhound Auto Retail stocks the Greyhound Lubricants range in 500 ml, 1 litre, 5 litre and 20 litre packs, next to the filters, plugs, additives and car care that go with a service. This guide tells you which grade and specification your engine, gearbox, differential and cooling system take, and which pack to put in the basket. It covers 137 makes and machine types sold in South Africa, from bakkies and hatchbacks to trucks, tractors, motorbikes, boats and generators. The engine data is maintained on the Greyhound Lubricants oil guide and updated here automatically.
