Book recommends 5W-30. I use Castrol Edge 5W-30 Fully synthetic oil and engine is clean and doesn't consume oil at all with 147000 clicks on it. This oil is the best, copes lot of heat and doesn't breakup even at very high temperatures offering maximum protection. Good thing is, it is very effective at cold starts. Dont know how good the other grades are in Castrol, but 5W-30 fully synthetic is very good.
