Ok the manual says to use 5w20 oil. I use all synthetic oils. I also live in charleston SC where its just about always sunny and hot/warm. Question is should i use lighter weight oil or the heavier wt oil. and should i stick with synthetic....doesnt the lighter wt give you better mpg.?

lighter is more efficent for moving parts in engine,so is synthetic if you can afford it

When mobile 1 starts making 5w-20, I'll switch to that........until then, I'm just using up my free oil/filter changes from honda[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I think it also depends on the weather conditions that you drive in. Like whether you living a part of the US where there is always high temperatures.

i use Royal Purple racing motor oil. it is suposed to be race proven and adds a little power and some other stuff but who knows. i only seen it at my import shop but i'm shore they have it at any performance shop. lots of people i know sware they can tell the diff. but well maybe, who knows. it's a little expensive but that's all i put in my car. it's suposed to stay alot cooler than other oils. well u will just have to read the bottle.
