Thought id share this - triple X oil 5-30w LL4 5 litres for £13.65 + mann filter !

I know the oil is no big brand but hey for that price you cant go wrong .. I think the fekked up the prices as they usually bump that oil price to £39.99 + free oil filter. I picked the most expensive oil filter which is the mann one. Have searched around and you cant even get the filter for that price

I just ordered 4 tubs and 4 oil filters for £54 ! Bargain !!

discount code = "hot30" for the 30% offer

Its there standard stuff when you consider that a 205 litre drum can cost wait for it £1.99 per litre it is a good buy. Triple X is their own brand spec oil.

wow £1.99 that is really cheap, considering I change my oil around the 8-10k mark thought it would be a good deal with the free filters

How do you get the free filter?

just add the oil to the basket and the filter - apply the voucher code and it gets deducted from the bill

Thanks for posting this, I've ordered the oil just to get the filter cheaper than usual lol. Will still be using Castrol as I usually do.

Great spot, just orderd some. A quick question regarding the oil filter cap. Does it unscrew clock wise or anti-clock wise. dont want to round the nut as its only plastic

Are you guys using triple x oil in your bmws? I am skeptical using this in my 335D... as will only use Castrol Edge.

Triple X may well be made by Castrol or something and re-sold as an ECP own-brand, but at those prices, it seems unlikely. However, from any evidence that I have found with a quick Google search, there is no proof that Triple X is any worse for your engine than the Castrol.

Personally I'm going to stay away from it and stick to Castrol Edge, just in case.

I put this in our ML last week, and for the first time ever I have got 500 miles from a tank. Not sure if it is the oil or the new air filter or what? but I have never managed to get 500 miles before, usually tops out around 440-450 miles.

I drop the oil out every 6-8k miles in it, so thought I would give it a try, so far so good.
For £14 if it sounded noisier or used more fuel I would have just dropped it out and used Fuchs again or Castrol, but going to stick with it.

[Jase 320d]

I used it in my previous VAG motors.


Actually pretty good oil for the price
Never did my previous cars any harm

[phozy888]

looks like they corrected the price now to £38.99 lol

Trust me Triple X ist't Castrol, Castrol is manufactured in Belgium and they wouldn't entertain making lubricants for anyone else to be sold on a budget according to our rep who supplies us directly
