Discuss Im just curious

do what the manual asks, 5w-30

I would recommend using a high quality full synthetic oil such as Mobil1, Royal Purple or Amsoil ( which I use ).

GLFREDRICK,
Thanks for the math lesson. Don't you have to change the filters on these synthetic oils more than the oil? How does the cost of the Amsoil filters compare with the standard filter?
One of the "independant" lab tests says that regular penzoil NON synthetic oil is better than Mobil 1 as far as the "scuff" test is concerned.... hmm, Mobil 1 is the number one competitor for Amsoil isn't it? That's the reason I search for more than one study group, not just the one they conveniently link you to on their home webpage. I still like Amsoil, even though I'm not 100% sure of their "independent" test results.
