if every 5k need to top-up, does it consider serious?
no other problem so far, engine's running fine all the way - no weird noises, no vibrations

5k need top up not serious.
Its ok to top different grade engine oil.

Next time, use 5w40, or 10w40 engine oil.
Advisable to top up before the warning lights comes on. Example next time just top up back to full when at 4k km.
Every time the light comes on, there is high risk of very high wear happening or even risk of catastrophic failure.
