Manual suggests 10w30, non-synthetic. There is A LOT of debate about synthetic vs. non-synthetic which you can read about if you search around, I won't go into it though. A lot of people us Castrol GTX 20w50, some people suggest against 10w40 because the additives used to get this temperature spread don't burn as well, and I personally use 10w30, usual brand name stuff (doesn't matter too much to me) and change it quite often (under 2k miles since I don't drive the car a lot).
