Hi all,
I have a question regarding changing from one grade of oil to another.
I recently bought camry 2005 4 cylinder 2.4L running 177,000KM, i am the 3rd owner. Car running perfect and engine sounds perfect.
First owner from brand new till 100K was serving the car at Toyota probably using 5w30 engine oil.
2nd owner was using 10w40 fully synthetic oil (Castrol magnetic) for 7 years now (77K)
My plan is to use engine flush prior to next oil change and use 5w30 fully synthetic oil( Castrol edge)
From your experience Is there any harm or expected issues (such as increase oil burn or consumption) if i switched back to 5w30 as it is the recommended oil.
Cheers
