It doesn't make any difference between thos two weights, as for the synthetic, yes it is better on the engine as is a good filter, like a K&N 3001 or a Mobil1-301.

I dont think they sell those filters in Spain Mike, I could be wrong.
15w-40 would be a good choice. Full synthetic is best. And a good brand name oil filter.

It all depends where you are in Spain
and it can get cold ,, I would try 10w30 or 10w40 even in southern Spain.

If it uses oil go with the next grade up say 10w30 to 10w40.

Now if you go to Morrocco go with the 15w40 in the sand!!!!!!!
