If the engine is in reasonable condition, and with winter coming, I would opt for Motul fully synthetic 10W-40 or some other high quality FULLY synthetic 10W-40.
Not all synthetic oils are FULLY synthetic.

not so much an answer but another question. if changing from say,magnatec to a fully synthetic oil, do you need to flush the engine or just drain and refill with fully synthetic?
