[QUOTE="jarance, post: 91909, member: 21"] csq, sure you want to do that... I don't think it is recommended to mix oil of different grade. maybe you can mix oil of same grade i.e. full synthethic with fully synthetic.. (mobil 1 with shell helix). Why do you post this question? It should be quite simple to buy 1 litre can of the same brand and grade for top up purposes. My mechanic say not to use fully synthetic oil for old engine coz they are too thin and tends to leak thru the oil seal.. Semi syn would be better if you are experiencing loss of oil. [/QUOTE]
