SCdriver Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 There are many threads on oil and filters. I personally use mobile 1 5W30 synthetic and lexus or other oil filters that have an anti drain valve. I expect that for most routine driving any good 5W30 synthetic oil would be fine as long as you change it & the filter every 5,000 miles. Many people swear by amsoil oil and others like another brands. Unless you really stress your car I believe it is more important to change your oil every 3-5,000 miles than what brand you choose to use. If you use regular oil, I'd change it every 3,000 miles. Enjoy a great car!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
