Hi again,
This is getting confusing now....
I spoke to my mechanic about doing the oil change. He encouraged it, gave me a few pointers and said I should stick with an A40 type oil in either 5W40 or 5W50. He personally uses Total Motor Oil 5W40 for all his clients. He said it has zinc added to the oil and his studies show it improves long term wear. Again, I live in Arizona. I'm not sure how much of an impact that really is...
But he said, if I were you doing my own oil change this weekend, I'd just go get Mobil 1 synthetic in one of those weights and you'll be good.
Ok fine.....
So when I search Amazon for Mobil 1 5W40, I can only find it in the 1 quart packs. Same goes for the 5W50. I guess that's not a huge problem....Same goes for Pennzoil.
The Total Motor oil is twice the price as Mobil 1 and about the same as DT40.
You guys count here....are you still cool with a 5W40 or 5W50 synthetic oil and it NOT be one of the fancy brands?
