    Hello, I have to add engine oil because it shows the minimum, and I have no idea how it was poured in there. I only associate something that the mechanic said he poured in semi-synthetic.
    I am talking about Corsa C petrol 1.2
    What can I pour in so that there are no surprises?

    No, just replace it with a new one, then and only then will you be sure it is ok.

    All brand oils are miscible - no snot will do. Do not look at the base, you can give a calm synthesizer, add something that the quality (norm) is acceptable by the manufacturer, universal viscosity is 5W40 in our climate. If you have a semi-synthetic, then lower viscosity there rather than 10W40. We do not know in what condition the engine. Too high a viscosity and can burn oil, too low - if the engine is worn - it can finish off and can also drink oil.
    On the other hand, complete replacement is the optimal solution, the more you don't know what is poured in there (the more synthetic additives, the better the washing properties, in turn, the more mineral base, the more frequent replacement is recommended to keep the engine clean, of course you select the quality class first, then viscosity, then base, but here I recommend a synthetic or good semi-synthetic).

    Ee these 5w30 mowers should probably walk. It's these inventions on the 1.0 1.2 16V chain

    It should, but writes that semi-synthetic, and there are probably 5W30 - which says something about the engine or at least about the previous owner. It is not known in what condition this engine is why I would look for a classy oil for this engine but with a viscosity of 40 - how much is available of course.
