Secondly, don't get hung up on the weight of the oil - the weights aren't definitive, and as such one company's 0w-30 is another's 10w-20.
What you need to do is find an oil that matches the Class your engine needs, e.g. API SL/CF, ACEA A3-04/**-04/C3-04. (2.2
i-CDTi
)
Fond fan of Liqui Moly - some useful/interesting info:

Thanks for that. So as long as its ACEA C3-04 for the diesel, we'll be o.k.
