That's a very broad question, more information would be helpful. But in most cases, the normal recommendation is 10w30 for the summer, and 5w30 for the winter. But other factors and driving conditions may call for something else, driving habits may change your requirements, and the specific engine may require something else. But don't just go by the manufacturer's recommendation, they usually recommend whatever weight will give the best fuel economy (this is the result of the EPA sticking it's nose where it doesn't belong). This may not always be the best choice for engine longevity. Your best bet would be to call a mechanic, they can probably made an educated suggestion. Or, if it's a car that's been around awhile (even if it's brand new, if the engine has been in production for a few years, this will work), check out a Hayne's manual or Chilton's manual, they'll have the best recommendation for oil in there.
