Have a look at this link below and see if that helps. I always use the genuine (Purflux) filters.

If there is a Motaquip factors near you, they have Purflux filters pretty cheaply as they are owned by PSA. It will come in a Motaquip box though...

Hi Philip -
Just realised your 16V is in the colour Gris Dolment - same as my recently purchased 16Meteor.
Any idea what the word (or name ?) "Dolment" stands for ?
BTW : the oilfilter is the standard PSA XU oil filter. Use the recommended viscosity of 10W40 on your engine - with the highest API spec you can get.
QUARTZ is a Total oil product - well reputed oil brand now owned by Elf.

Aha ... Thanks Philip. Yes the french word has a "t" added :
English : Dolmen grey
French : Gris Dolment
Scandinavian : Dolmen grå
Makes sense though as a "dolmen stone grey" colour, because that is the overall impression of the colour, when the car is not exposed to direct sunlight.
