Default 10W30 used by dealer?????

Bastards! They put 10W30 in there!!!! The manual says to only use 5W40 or something........arrrrrrrrrrrrgh. should i change it out??

At least they were chip friendly....or chip oblivious. The guy had a big smile after he took my car for the lil road test they always do though =)<p>-Cheng Kwan

Default Leave it alone already

Makes almost no difference, particularly in warm weather.

Default Won't hurt, but be sure next time you get a 5w oil!

Just be sure the engine's warm before you get into the turbos hard!<p>Jim De Arras
