i use the regular synthetic 10w30. some sales people tried to sell me heavier weight oils cuz they said "my mileage", but i just dont mind them.

so i should just go with the regular one as proven.... mobile 1 is the best synthetic oil for our cars. If you have prone to leaks, especialy the tube wells and oil pan, the high mileage is a good suite. depending on where you live: 5w30 is better for temperatures between freezing and 92 degree's ferinheit. 10w30 is better between 52 and 132 degree's ferinheit mind you these are startup facts, and they are testing the theory of head damage as thicker oil at a lower temp takes longer to get to the head.| where I live I run 5w30 between september and june, only the summer months do i use 10w30 This post has been edited by Mstoochn: Dec 29, 2009 - 9:09 PM |

i have 175xxx i use castrol gtx high mileage, really helps with the burning oil x2! i burn a lot of oil 194k miles x3 the previous owner used nothing but castrol gtx and the engine is still going strong with 202k miles. when i did the lower oil pan gasket last year, there was no sludge in the bottom and it looked pretty damn clean in the bottom end. after seeing that, its hard not to just keep using it. plus the 5 qt jugs are only like $14 at walmart, so thats nice too. |
