new engine for my VE V6 has around 200k on the clock, just wondering about oil recommendations. i’m tossing up between the recommended 5w30 and a higher quality 20w50. have been getting different advice from every mechanic and shop owner in town, so only replies from people with a fair bit of experience with higher km engines.
ALSO - someone mentioned dropping the old oil, adding the 20w50, idling for ten minutes, then dropping that oil and adding the 5w30 and replacing filter. thoughts on this method?
