European/Australian owners- what oil does your manual call for?

[Striker]

Hey fellas-

I'm very curious to see as to what you folks on the other end of the pond read in your owners manual for oil recommendation in these cars.

The north american versions typically call for oils that will get that 0.1mpg's more while sacrificing added protection.

I don't wish to get into an oil debate of any form- more so what your experiences were, what oil it calls for compared to here (N/A) and of from there.

Thanks!

THANK YOU for that info!

I am going to use either that, or a heavier 0W-30 in the summer, and either a high grade 0W-20, or 5W-20 in the winter time once break-in is done.
