A quality brand of 5w30 or 10W40 will suffice.
The dip stick is fiddley but you will soon get used to it.
Needs to sit a couple of hours to get a true dip stick reading and preferably overnight.
Paul, as has been stated the gauges can be read without powering up.
I have a U.K. set of gauges here and the code on the printed circuit reads CD700A 040302 13 and there is a sticker with a bar code with a part number on the underside CD700 3SLJ
Hope this helps.
Gilly, one of the better tyres for the Zed.
I run them in 18" and 19" for road use and absolutely brilliant in the wet.
I also use them as a wet for track use.
Beware, they have no specials on at the moment for 245s.
Alex.
When you are new to the Zed the dipstick can be a bit fiddly.
Let it sit for an hour to settle down and you should get an accurate reading.
Best time to check the oil is after the car has been sitting all night.
I can help you with all this mate.
I have new and preowned stock dual mass flywheels available.
I also have Nissan and Exedy stock clutches available.
All good to go next day.
Drop me a pm with your phone number and I can talk you through the options and prices
Cheers,
Alex.
