Hello all.
I am purchasing a 06 Jeep commander with the 5.7 liter in it. The oil cap calls for 5w-20, but from what I've read, albeit not much so far, has been that 5w-20 is just something manufacturers recommend to meet CAFE standards. What are your recommendations? If I recall correctly a buddy of mine ran 5w-30 in his Fusion he had on lease even though it called for 5w-20.
Thanks in advance.
PS. Also, if anyone wants to throw in a oil recommendation or two I won't complain. I would prefer to run a sythentic.
