Don’t cheap out on oil! The factory recommended oil is 5w30 as long as you get a full synthetic close to that u should be fine

You can use whatever oil you like..but unless you're getting up there in kms (ie north of 200-250 thousand) and the engine is getting a bit tired and rattly, then a 15w is a bit heavy in my opinion. As someone else said, a 10w is a better option IMO.
