CH is for ULSD, which is not yet introduced in India. I was trying to search something about Casrol GTX - D on Castrol web site but couldnt find. But while doind some google search got some good reviews about Castrol GTX-D GTX is Petrol, and GTD is diesel oil, and GTX-D is a new diesel oil. Dont confuse GTD with GTX-D I am due for 10K oil change. Will check with Maruti delaer if they stock GTX-D. Else may need to buy outside. -Another Srikanth ![]() | |

They have quite a big range of products. I really didnt investigate as I had decided what to go for before hand. But I guess even if its not present in their stock, they can probably get anything thats available in India FYI they are located near South Point High School, Ballygunge. | |

| ![]() Hi guys, Will be giving my Feb 2005 Santro Xing for its 50,000 kms service on Monday (Nov 24). Am planning to switch to synthetic oil during this service and need your valuable inputs on a few things.

1. Shell helix Ultra is fully compatible with Santro. Go for 15w50. 2. It is recomended that engine is flushed while switching from mineral oil to Synthetic oil. Pls refer to earlier posts to get more details on Synthetic oil. | |
