Hello Oil guys!
After a very very intensive search I found my perfect LS430 from 2004 with the 3UZ-FE.
I drove the car home and took many things apart and I am trying to make it perfect.
For now I like to make my first oil change. The car has driven 100.000 km and had about every 12.000 km an oil change. (Sometimes a bit later)
Officials say that I need to put 5w30 but isnt 0w30 better because its thinner when its cold? And second, why not filling it up with 0w40? Isn't that the best allrounder?
I really want to give this car the best and dont want to have any risk of hurting my engine. I want to keep it for a very long time.
I also have big cans of both 0w40 and 5w30 MOBIL1 in my garage so I can choose whatever I want.
By the way. Is there an expiration date on oil after I opened it? I hope not because I still have many different Mobil oils in storage.
Thanks for all the advice!
