Got 2 hours!
Best thing is to search threads in technical, general and drivetrain.
You will learn that what you thought was a simple question is anything but!

And welcome to SN.

Holy Crap!! What a question!!

Do yourself a BIG favour, do NOT do a search, buy a well known Semi-Synthetic, change it every 6 months or 7500miles ............ its as simple as that!

Oh, yes, there is an **** Guide to Oil Changes - use it if you wish, other than that do what you would do with any other car!!

Welcome!

Because Fully Synthetic is good for extended service intervals - 6 months and 7500miles is not an extended service interval.

Semi is recommended by the people who invested £millions in the design of the engine used .... I will let them tell me whats best for their engine
