Default N* owners, what oil do you run?

The SRX is coming up for an oil change and was wondering what you run? I know it says to run Mobil 1 5w30 but I know some gear heads have their favorite full synthetic's to run. I run Mobil 1 5w30 SUV blend right now, it claims to have a little more durability for harder driving conditions. If my wife drives like she used to drive in her old Grand Am I know its a better choice, lol.

I am just curious what other people are running or if I am the only one that gives a damn about making the SRX a little more than the average SUV on the road.

Default mobil 1

As long as it is 5w30 you'll be fine, I'd stick with mobil one

u got my attention .. sure like to see a few pics of this


1999 Grand Am GT - Too many mods to list...



driving in weather of Boyne City, MI .. i stay with the 5w 30 for sure.
as to what oil, well .. that is like discussing religion, there are no winners ever.

instead of my typical long winded rant, i offer this informative site that you can review over a beer or two or several.
Chris has spent a great deal of time putting together one informative site with lots and lots of great info, along with personal preferences.

when you are done with the oil section, check the other sections.
