I purchased my Zed 3 weeks ago, oil levels seem fine, but as she hasn't done high mileage, I want to top up the oil levels.

 

I'm unsure what oil is currently in the car, but I've done some research, and it suggest that mixing oils is ok. Being an imbecile, I've purchased some Castrol Edge 0W-30 Fully Synthetic as opposed to the suggested 5W-30. The carton has Nissan ticked on the back. Just want to double check that it's ok to put this in my car?

 

As an aside, what oil do people recommend, any fully snthetic 5W-30?

 

Cheers

Both 0w30 and 5w30 will be same consistency when warm.

When cold both will be really thick, thicker than when warm, but the 0w will flow better when really cold.

So the 0w is actually better.
