Nope.

It's recommended to use what the service manual calls for.

But you can do whatever you like really...

No unless you have under 100000km or have already started using synthetic oil don't use synthetic oil

Don't bother. Use conventional 5w20 as recommended.


You can do as you please, though. It's your car.
