i haven't changed my oil since i bought my car a while ago so i think i'd better give it a service. Just wondering what the best type to use is ie. synthetic, semi synthetic or a good quality non synthetic? cheers

anything is possible. if its going to leak its going to leak its just a matter of when. if your engine is in such poor shape that you're worried about causing a leak then dont switch.
i switched and my only oiling problem went away. -------------------- |
