My car is Honda City Vtec 2004.

Next week I will take my car back to SC to repair and change engine oil.
But before my car is service at outside and use 15w-40 castrol mineral engine oil.

If now I change my engine oil to 0w-20 or 0-30 Honda fully synthetics will it cause any problems?

Hope to get reply from you all.

for the most part, no.

however if your car is ALREADY leaking from worn seals, it may leak more/easier.
just monitor on your engine oil levels via dipstick weekly/bi-weekly just to be safe.

My car has minor leaking on top of the engine.
Last two months I was send my car back to SC to do fully Inspection, they founded have leaking on top of engine.
They recommend to change Gasket and Oil Cap. But that time I haven't fix it.

Next week will do one more time inspection. If conform the leaking can fixed by replaced that two item, after that I change to Fully Synthetics will it damages to my car?
