Is it ok to move from fully synthetic oil back to the basic stuff?, reason being that last year when I serviced my car I got hold of some top notch stuff for free from a friend, as money is a bit tight at the moment i'm wondering if I will encounter any problems changing down the oil grade.

Hope that made sense :p

Thanks!

Cheers for the reply Matt,

Im just planning on putting the standard oil in there (whatever the manual says, Haynes suggests 10W/30 to 15W/50).

I can't remember the exact designation but I used some Total (the garage) Fully Synthetic Oil.

I am just worrying a bit before I do it, because I got told by some old codger that you can't really go back to using standard oil once you have used Fully Synthetic.

Thanks
Andy
