There are several oils you can use, i use a 15w50 fully synthetic oil in my scoob, subaru put a 10w40 semi synthetic in the cars normally.
As for the knocklink, it picks up noise off the engine to see if there is a problem with det, you shouldnt see more than the second green light going, amber is still ok, just take heed of it (ie foot of fast pedal), red is a no no.

Oil, look in the Owners manual and do what it says in there!!

Oil, get the thickest you possibly can ... I would recommend 25W-80 - very rare, but - I have 5 litres sitting right here beside me. It has lost its label but it is top stuff - normally retails at £79:99 for 4 litres - YOU can have it for £59:99 and it's a special offer 5 litre carton!!
And yes, cocklinks make you a rally wannabeee chav - sorry about that!
