- Sun Sep 12, 2010 2:12 am #213190 ^^^ correct 5w30 is best for our cars unless boosted you can actually harm your seals if you go to thick

thicker oil will make the car run harder cuz it has to push a heavier weight throughout the engine... yes it doesnt burn as fast but if you keep up on your oil changes you shouldnt have a problem to begin with!!
