Hi all, long time reader, first time poster.
It's alomost the time of the year again when I need to service my EP3 so I've been buying all the parts and consumables ready. I ordered a 5 litre bottle of Castrol EDGE 5W-40 from eBay (from Opie Oils) as it was the same as I used last year. This bottle though has a Germnan label and where I would normally see it saying "Fully Synthetic", this one says "HC-Synthese". i've googled it as much as i can and put it through translate, but i cant find any solid answers as to what it actaully is. I'm guessing it's probably just the German's being super organised and having several different classifications for fully synth oil, but i wanted to check with anyone that might have some experience with it before i full my engine full of the stuff.
Here's the link to the one I bought incase it helps.
