^^More than likely because they're trying to restrict sales of it, and make it exclusive to main dealers!
(Which in my experience isn't unheard of!!)

This is the oil for my d4 @ Â£9.20 + vat

Sorry to say that this bottle is wrong in specs.

Must be 913C (better 913D) if not DPF in your car, or 934B if DPF

The picture is not so clear, but I think that i read C3

There is a Morris oil that meets C1 but that is not it.

However the C3 oil pictured meets the Citroen spec for the engine when fitted to a Citroen and I am running C3 in my XJ

I have noticed no difference

And Morris oil is a good quality British brand

As my last post

The C3 is indeed not correct but will do no harm

It doesn't take being a Land Rover dealer to read the handbook

And I am happy to run C3 as it is my decision

But your garage should have provided C1 which is slightly more expensive than the C3 you have pictured

Both are good quality oils though

I'm a Morris lubricants retailer, and in a DPF D4 you need the C1 5/30 Oil, non DPF, this is fine, in my D4 13 plate I use c1 and change it every 4-5k
