72k/5years Renault recomend.

10-40 or 5-40 is fine. 5-40 is a more popualr choice.

Think engine is desighned for 10/40 semi synthetic so thats what is best to put in

The oil depends on where its run in some climates 15/50 is recomended. In the Uk 5-40 is used but 10-40 is fine down to -20 degrees under Renault procedures.

There more info here if your interested
