pj8708 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Anyone have recommendation on type or brand of oil to use on oil change? The best recommendation is to always go with the owners manual specs. Brand and type is VERY personal and you will never get a consensus from this forum.LOL In terms of type, I assume you mean standard/regular oil or synthetic. Many Lexus dealers will use a blend of oil and synthetic. On this forum, more and more folks are using synthetic. It offers IMO, better wear protection over longer periods, longer intervals between changes, and keeps the engine cleaner in most circumstances. I use Mobil 1 synthetic.

Bruces10 Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Yes, Paul. I was curious as to conventional vs. synthetic, along with brand or quality experience. Thanks for your response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnPete Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I have used Mobil 1 Synthetic since the car was new. The viscosity is listed on the oil filler cap. In my case API Service SL 5w-30 Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
