Hey man you probably want to get something just a touch thick because of kms the motors got, 15w 40? i normally use castrol semi :) ask one of the workers there as well they normally know what recommended and best for the motor then you choose by comparing the price. Though royal purple would be nice Lol! Autobarn at greenvalley are pretty cool try them or Peps auto at Fairfield Heights. Goodluck man

Go a step up and see how your engine runs (check oil level every 1000km too)
Use 10w40

I use Nulon. If you wanna spend big go Royal Purple, or if you're on a budget use Castrol Magnatec (gets the job done).
10W-40. If your engine is leaking oil then fix the leak, don't just go using a thicker oil especially in winter.
