I used 15w40 mineral in both my XUD engines, one was stock and the other Stage 2.
Put err, nearly 100k combined on those engines over 5 years of owning the cars.
Used some 2-stroke oil in the fuel as well, was running veg most of the time.

my xuds have had a mixture over the years
anything from finishing off all the leftovers of various 15w40 10w40 5w40
to expensive gulf competition 5w40 - which my engine always seems to decide to let go off shortly later putting in
best thing you can do, regardless of what you put in, is change it reguarly

I always use 10\40. Usually whatever we have in the barrel at work which is synthetic. I change every 3000 miles. Which is a little overkill but I like peace of mind.
On a break from 306oc for personal reasons. If anyone needs or wants me most of you have my number and or facebook messenger
Thanks for the good times guys n gals. I might be back. Who knows.

I beg to differ, have you ever looked at Peugeot's specs for oil consumption? I'm guessing not lol, in an ideal world maybe they shouldn't but the smaller petrol's especially do and are expected to

It's usually 5W40 the quartz 90000
I've used that until recently. Now using Motul Sport 5W50 as it's better for heat break down, fuel contamination and I get it cheapish

Takes ages filling the engine with those little sachets though...
On topic, I tend to use either Triple QX, Castrol Magnatec or Shell Helix, 10w40 on any 306 I've owned, whichever's cheapest/easiest. They don't seem as fussy on oil as certain other marques that I've owned lol. Can't say I noticed any difference between oils.

Total 9000 isn't too bad even buying single bottles. 23 delivered online for fully-synth, oem recommended isn't terrible imo.

Using Shell Helix ultra 5w40 on mine.
Used shell helix ultra for 3 changes in my old corsa as well and had the quietest timing chain out of a lot of cars and was on about 125k. No complaints with it at all
