I just recently got a 1996 Integra GSR. It has around 222,000kms. I'm going to do an oil change soon and was wondering what kind of oil I should use? I heard I should be using those high milage oil or should I be using synthetic oil? 5w30 or 10w30?
I'm not sure what kind of oil the previous owners used so I'm going to assume they been using non-synthetic oil. I heard that if the car hasn't been using synthetic oil for most of it's life, some people don't recommend switching to synthetic. The synthetic may clean up sludge so well, that it may uncover leaks.
Also does it really matter what kind of oil filter I get. I saw some oil filter at canadian tire for high mileage cars by FRAM and I think it was more than double the price of the motomaster oil filter.
Any recommendation would be appreciated
