Topping up with oil with incorrect manufacturer specs
Discussion
I'm away on holiday, I realised I hadn't checked the engine oil in a long time, and just checked it to find it right on the minimum mark.
The shop only had this in

It's the right grade, but doesn't state a Toyota spec. It's going in for a service and MOT in 2 weeks, but I'll be covering approx 750 miles in that time. It'll be fine....right!?
Could do with the full 1L, car holds about 8.5. Might just top it up by 500ml so there isn't loads of it in there.
