Hey people.
Just wondering. I need to full up my cars oil and im not to sure what type to get eg 10w40.

My car is a 1992 mazda lantis and has done around about 210000km

Any generic 15w40 will do. Dont want anything to thin with those kms

ah ok well if it is not using oil then you can use any oil also change the oil filter while you change the oil and it is 1 liter from minimum mark to maximum exactly on dipstick

10w40 was the recommended oil for the engine . if its not using any oil/leaking oil etc, I'd keep to what it's always had.
