I have close to 105,000 miles on an 02 Acura TL-S. The owners manual states to use 5W20 and if 5w30 is used, to change to 5w20 at the next OC.
At 75K , I switched over to Valvoline Syntheic 5W30. Would this cause any issues to the engine (living in TX). I've been changing the oil out every 5k with the syn oil.
My question is -
1. Should I continue to use 5w30, and is valvoline synthetic a good oil - if I should use 5w30 what brand should I go for?
2. If I need to go back to 5w20 - what is a good synthetic oil - can't seem to find Valvoline Synthetic in 5w20.
3. What is a good mileage to change the oil out using synthetic.
Thanks,
TS
