The Mobilé 1 FS 5W-40 at Walmart.Which mobile one 5w40 would be a good choice for a 2015 2GRFE?
Why would there be?any timing issues, vvti issues with thicker oi?
Exactly. People really need to stop spreading this misinformation. Like the one guy who insists that his engine knocks and sputters and runs so terribly on a W30 or W40 but not on a W20. Ugh.Why would there be?
People who spout that kind of nonsense never worked on an engine in their life. They probably don't even pump their own gas, let alone change their own oil. But they're armchair experts with a bachelor's degree in keyboard tribology!Like the one guy who insists that his engine knocks and sputters and runs so terribly on a W30 or W40 but not on a W20.
Well, I have flipped all of mine from 0W20 to 5W30 except for the only one under a dealer package - and yesterday’s paperwork says 5W30 LoL …Exactly. People really need to stop spreading this misinformation. Like the one guy who insists that his engine knocks and sputters and runs so terribly on a W30 or W40 but not on a W20. Ugh.
You realize the older VVTi engine (more at: Toyota/Yamaha) from 15 years ago had less control valving and the intake timing retard was related oil pressure on the mechanism after (ECU) programmed HOT /RUN threshold.People who spout that kind of nonsense never worked on an engine in their life. They probably don't even pump their own gas, let alone change their own oil. But they're armchair experts with a bachelor's degree in keyboard tribology!
Yes. Just do it if you are inclined - no biggie.This 20 to 30 viscosity is a common question.
Just out of curiosity, I asked my dealer service advisor if he would put in a 30 weight oil (because I was planning on towing in the summer heat) when I came in for a toyota care interval. He said it would most likely void my warranty but he would have to check on it. I would have to sign a waiver at the very least because the "oil passages are very narrow and it could cause oil leaks" LOL! Daddy government got them all gaslit pretty good!Yes. Just do it if you are inclined - no biggie.
If the car doesn't respond well, it's all an OC away.
Warranty? The service writer zone rep could care less - unless you haven't thrown the joint a bone or two or three over the life of your vehicle.
One hand washes the other
That pennzoil platinum 5w30 has a low flash point and burns off easy compared to other brandsIf you have any concerns with 5W30 then just run a 5W30 on the thin side (such as Pennzoil Platinum 5W30 synthetic) .
