    Just replied to your same question elsewhere.

    Plugs from Vauxhall. Cheap as chips.

    Oil is mentioned on Vauxhall's website:

    http://www.vauxhall.co.uk/vaux/owner...do?method=view

    5w/30 fully synth, long life oil that meets or exceeds GM-LL-A-025 grade.

    I tend to use mfg recommended bits, surprising what a new set of plugs will feel like ...........
