Full Synthetic SAE 0W-20 (recommended) or as an alternative, SAE 0W-30 is recommendedWHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 5W-30 and 0W-30 and 0W-20 MOTOR OIL?
It is the viscosity of the oil is that differentiates 0w20 from 5w20 and 5w30 from each other. Every oil viscosity has benefits and drawbacks depending on the temperature, and not all of them are compatible with all engines. Basically:
0W20 = COLD WEATHER PERFORMANCE. Low viscosity. Provides better protection from normal engine wear and tear for its cold-weather performance and
0W30 = EXTREME TEMPERATURES OVER 400 degrees F. This is an alternative oil used in high performance engines and driving habits.
5W30 = COLD & WARMER TEMPERATURES = thicker composition makes it less fuel-efficient than the other motor oils.
