Default Oil....

Need to put some oil in the old girl and i've read somewhere that you shouldn't mix oils..... so what should i do, do i really have to do an oil change and start from fresh or when you get a service do all honda garages use the same type of oil...??

Phone the last garage that serviced your car and ask them what they use. Most use semi-synthetic unless you provide your own synthetic oil.
