>manual just says to get outdated, oil, no mention of it being synthetic or not, needs zinc but those don't get made anymore, and OH! You must get these specific facturer oils else your car might wear down
Honestly it's pretty impressive that they make these things so vague as possible just so they can force you to pay a mechanic to screw a bolt on the underside of your car. What kikery is this?

I smell a skill issue.

You can buy zinc additive. Viscosity is the most important part of oil, not the brand itself.

Imagine buying zinc additive for a fucking 95 Civic.

Rotella t4 10w30 diesel oil will do
