Default ZT Diesel oil ?

Found in my local supermarket litre bottles of Castril Edge 5w -30 oil reduced to £1.69 !!!!!!!!!

Would this be suitable for a Diesel ZT ?

The supermarket name being....?, And the amount being?
And the answer is, take a look in your service manual, it will list which grade oil is appropriate

Oil for diesel’s is sae 10-40 A3/B3 A3/B4. Some owners say that in there owners books issued with thecar when they bought it, the stipulation was 5/30. Wheatger this is true I do not know. I use 10/40 in my 2002 diesel club.
