Newb to Holden question. I can't find this topic covered elsewhere.
I am coming from a long term love with Subaru cars. Their factory recommendation is to only have mineral oil in the engine for the first 12,500 kms minimum.
This is part of their running in process and they claim that synthetic oil will not allow their run in proceedure to occur correctly and the engine will take longer to loosen up.
I always do a very early oil change on my new cars, typically within the first 500km and will then be doing 7500km changes thru the life of the car.
Do Holden suggest Mineral or Synthetic as their runnning in oil?
