You are either pouring the wrong type of oil into your passenger car, or posting in the wrong forum. Either way...

Not a lot of technical info on their web site, but I did find the MSDS which had this page: I would call your attention to the Kinematic Viscosity @40 DegC which is shown as 28.4. For reference, the same Kinematic Viscosity @40 DegC for Mobil 1 0W-20 EP is 55! So... they are either very...

OK, but Amsoil doesn't recommend the 0W-30 for use in your 2020 Tundra - see here: Amsoil Oil Recommendations for 2020 Tundra Might be a sticky wicket getting around that discrepancy in court if you do have a claim. Just sayin' Have a nice day.

I agree, in principle, but that's not my point. My 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser also specifies TGMO (or equivalent) 0W-20: Oil grade: ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20 [API SN at the time of OM publication] I am currently using Mobil 1 Extended Performance 5W-30...

Your Owner's Manual says: The Amsoil 0W-30 you are asking about is neither 0W-20 nor ILSAC GF-5 certified. I fail to see how you could possibly construe that the Amsoil 0W-30 would be approved for use in your Tundra. Whoever at the dealer said it was "approved" is either misinformed or...

Point well taken.

I agree. Here's the oil recommendation for my 3UR-FE Toyota 5.7L engine here in the U.S.: It reads as a very strong recommendation for 0W-20. But it does say that a higher viscosity oil (unspecified viscosity range) may be better under certain use conditions. And here is the same oil...

If you are going to bump a thread that's over two and a half years old, you should probably add some value to your post by sharing that the current version of the oil in question, i.e. Amsoil Signature Series 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil, does meet API specs: 5W-30 (ASL): API SP (Resource...

Of more interest to me is the Technical Product Data which includes the specs: Ravenol DXG SAE 5W-30 HTH

TL;DR

I believe you are correct.

TRD "better" points vs. OEM: - Full synthetic media vs. non-synthetic - Internal metal support tube preventing collapse vs. no internal support - Silicone O-Ring seals top and bottom to prevent by-pass vs. hard plastic end pieces - Metal end caps for improved structural integrity vs. no end caps...

The TRD PTR43-00081 cartridge filter is made in the good old USA: Been using these exclusively in my 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser since new with no problems. Much better construction than the Made in Thailand Toyota OEM filter: HTH

Feel lost without my Avatar, but no big deal - appreciate all the effort and like the new format (y)
