All,
Looking for information in regards to what oil to put in. If I should put synthetic or not into the engine or Castrol vs some other brand.
1. What kind of vehicle you have
2005 Toyota Camry
2. What your owner's manual says -- not just viscosity, but certifications (look for acronyms like API SM, ILSAC GF-4, etc.) and change intervals as well
Grade: API grade SL "Energy-Conserving" or ILSAC multigrade engine oill
Viscosity: 5w-30
Change Interval: 5000
3. Where you live
Minneapolis, MN
4. How you drive (easy? hard? fast? slow?)
My wife drives pretty easy.
5. What your daily drive is like (short trips? long trips? city? highway?)
Short trips most are probably under 10 minutes and most are the city. On occasion highway miles
6. Whether your car has any known problems
No known problems as far as I know.
The car has about 140K miles on it but those were mostly highway miles.
Appreciate the responses.
Thanks,
Scott
