afaik mineral oil also use those cleaning addons nowadays so I dont know if it really is dangerous to shift from mineral to synthetic anymore.

But if you can find out what oil the previous owner used it could be nice, if that was synthetic you should continue with that ofcourse.


I use synthetic in both my Celicas, the ST205 get expensive oil from castrol, the ST202 get not so expensive oil from "biltema" (swedish company that sell cheap parts for cars)

The only reason for that is that I care much more for the ST205, and it costed ten times more than the ST202, the ST202 also get much more miles every year, so filling it with
expensive oil would be, well, expensive smile.gif
