mobil 1...lol just because the manual says so. If you have an internal problem and need to take it in for warranty work hopefully they wouldn't blame it on the oil but you never know

Theres a oil spec in the manual, its like 1394 or something like that for the minumum spec.
If its listed on the Quaker state I dont see a problem using it.
I will use the Can tire formula 1 synthetic ($19.00 for 4.4 liters )if mobil 1 not on sale, I am pretty sure its made by esso and meet all the specs listed in the manual.

It may not...however, my point was he said who cares what the manual says. My reply is if you don't care about the warranty than it doesn't matter what the manual says. But if you do just do what it says...simple

yea I have to get my oil changed and tires rotated every 6000 miles and I get free tires and batteries for life. But if I go over even by a mile they wont do it. They discontinued that offer so they are trying to get rid of everyone who has it, but as long as I keep my maintenence on time they cant void it.
