Starting tomorrow, Super cheap is having a special on the 10w-30 Castrol titanium edge. Its $25.

I would be going 10-40 given the age of the car, unless the engine is known to be very healthy and tight.

Even a 10-50 if you're burning a bit of oil.

10W30 will be fine. Just keep an eye on the level regularly. H22's like to chew through oil which is perfectly normal.

10w50 was great on both my 5th gens as they got older.
