i been using the same for over 7 yrs. my car has ran flawlessly since i bot it.
some people recommend 20w50. i was thinking of switching at some points but i never pulled the trigger b/c i have had such good luck with 10w30. what is the pro of running 20w50?

Valvoline 10w-30... straight up.

....Matty, the only pro to running thicker oil is to keep viscosity higher at hotter temps....this shouldnt be an issue for healthy low mile motors....but for worn motors with higher tolerances it would be beneficial.
