Car is supposed to use 0w20. It's only a synthetic as far as I know. But I didn't think it really mattered before. Anyway I've not used w20 anything in it for over 100k miles and have used conventional half the time. Always 5 or 10 w 30 or 5 w40. Didn't really think much about it until recently. Now that I've been reading on bitog. Keeps me thinking too much about it lol. Anyway apparently after 130k miles I guess it's safe to say it hasn't hurt anything. I've used several Purolator filters. A couple fram and mobile 1 filters and wix. Only the fram filter ever caused an issue. Ive used any brand of oil that's on sale or cheap including store brands with never anything to cause a noticable difference. I sorta don't think most people worry much about these things like on here lol. Latley I can't seem to stop thinking about it now lol
