There are many threads on this subject in the engine/exhaust section. Take a moment to read what most are using.
Besides, 5W30 is a better oil than the Government mandated 5W20.

Whoops.... was that my outside voice?

Just use standard Texas theory... 5w30 is bigger.

Has there been a motor oil thread started on this forum yet? Is motor oil the sort of thing that car drivers discuss? I am unaware of this recent trend.

In the OP's defense, he was discussing which Grade of oil... 5w20 vs 5w30 vs 5.0


Instead of the ridiculously common "Which brand is better".

Yeah, but to be fair, his question was answered on the first page, so what's the harm in a little fun?

Actually, it was answered in the manual.
