89813, Got an oil question
Posted by 95venge, Sep-20-05 08:16 AM
Alright, I know this has been talked about a few times but I couldn't get a definate answer. I've finally gone past 3k miles on the engine and I'm wondering what oil you guys think would be best for this time of year. I'm not gonna drive the car in the snow but it'll still be driven until then.
Thanks

Matt

10W-30 should be just fine. How cold does it get there...cause that would be a no no for me during the winter lolz.

10W30 synthetic
Even in Canada 600 miles north of you we still only use 10W30 in the winter.

Get the amsoil. A little bit expensive but an awesome synthetic oil nonetheless.

Amsoil is very good stuff. If not amsoil, then get mobil 1.
