1.6 16V Petrol + Lpg 206 I have the vehicle at 190 thousand km
There are a lot of people who say 10-40 but 5-30 is recommended as oil.
Which should be put in oil care?

First of all, the engine structure of your vehicle supports 10-40, it is 5-30 oil thin, at the same time, since your vehicle is LPG, your oil will get hotter and the result will be more friction, the level of friction will be high.

I did not even put 10/40 on my 206 vehicle and used it for full synthetic oils. 5/40 full synthetic oil is better. High quality oils with low evaporation rate are available at high temperatures. It will lubricate better than 10/40 oil. In addition, it does not make sense to thicken oil as the vehicle rises km. I have friends who have 300 km overturned diesel 308-307 both use 5w / 30 oil.
