[DMCForum] Re: Just a little paranoia (On Topic)

What kind of oil do you use?
When in America I used Valvoline 20w50 fully synthetic.
Here in Ireland they tell me that 20w50 does not exist in fully 
synthetic form, so the best I can get over here is 10w30 fully 
synthetic, is this good enough? I haven't actually done an oil change 
on the car since bringing it back from the USA as it has only been 
driven about 1000 miles over here as yet. Its last oil change was 
August 2002, 5000 miles ago.
