Another post about my brother's 96' Lexus ES300. 168,000 miles and it's got blue smoke on startup for 10 seconds or so. Also it burns about a quart of oil roughly every 800 miles. Initially he put in 0w30 Mobil 1 but we've added various types and weights for top off. The car actually runs great, it's the 3.0 V6 Toyota motor.
Next oil change - what weight of oil/ what kind? PCV has been changed.
I have tons of Valvoline NextGen MaxLife 10w40 in my stash
He wants to use 5w30 MaxLife or something similar.
He thinks my 10w40 is too thick and will do more damage to the seals
So now for the final question... What weight and what brand to use?
