The short answer

Which oil does a Vauxhall Corsa take?

The oil your Vauxhall Corsa needs depends on its engine and when it was built. Below is what the carmaker lists for each Corsa engine — 4 generations and 13 engine types in our table — and the oils we sell that state it: NAPA from our Bulwell shelf, plus Castrol, Mobil and Valvoline delivered next day.

  • Corsa F (2019–now) — petrol: Stellantis FPW9.55535/03 (5W-30) or PSA B71 2010 (0W-20); diesel: Stellantis FPW9.55535/03 (5W-30)
  • Corsa E (2014–2019) — petrol: GM dexos1 Gen 2 (5W-30) or GM dexos2 (5W-30); diesel: GM dexos2 (5W-30)
  • Corsa D (2006–2014) — petrol: GM dexos2 (5W-30); diesel: GM dexos2 (5W-30)
  • Corsa C (2000–2006) — petrol: GM LL-A-025 (5W-30); diesel: GM LL-B-025 (5W-30)

The grade (such as 5W-30) and the approval (such as a carmaker code) both need to match your handbook. If your car has a particulate filter, the low-ash oil the handbook lists protects it.

By generation

Vauxhall Corsa engine oil by generation and engine

Each Corsa engine in our table with the approvals the carmaker lists for it (in the handbook or the service schedule), the usual one first, and the grades. Where we mark “check your handbook”, the approval changed during production or we could not confirm it in a carmaker’s own document. Check your exact car in the finder or WhatsApp us your reg.

Questions

Vauxhall Corsa engine oil questions

What engine oil does a Vauxhall Corsa take?

It depends on the engine and generation. Corsa F (2019–now) — petrol: Stellantis FPW9.55535/03 (5W-30) or PSA B71 2010 (0W-20); diesel: Stellantis FPW9.55535/03 (5W-30).

What grade of oil does a Vauxhall Corsa use?

Most Corsa engines in our table list 5W-30; others list 0W-20. Use the grade your handbook gives together with its approval: the same grade can carry different approvals.

Does my Corsa need low-ash (low SAPS) oil?

If it has a particulate filter, yes: use the low-ash approval its handbook lists, such as GM dexos2 or GM dexos1 Gen 2. A high-ash oil can block the filter over time.
