1.4 oil

[nissan boy]

What oil does the cga3de 1.4 use
Its got 5w30 halford recommended in it and its like water
Only recently serviced
I normally run 10/40 semi in the cars and have no problems s ever
So just wanting to make sure

Thanks again

Nissan recommend both depending on ambient temp. I use 10w40 magnatec usually but at the moment I've got Nissan 10w40 in it as it was on a deal.

just going to say 5/30 or 5/40 can be used in a micra but its suppose to use for town and short little trips even states "no high speed driving" in the book would would mean what 60mph+ and over a period of time
and going to also warn euro parts and halford recommend 5/30 for both coil and dizzy micra also europarts recommend 0/30
it seem just sticking with good quality 10/40 semi or fully it right for the engine and possibly 15/40 for a more worn engine (again book states 15/40 for hotter claims but work within the same temps as 10/40)
sorry if i sound a bit silly but its been a long crap day
