oil was changed using 5w20? The last time I check, our car uses 10w 30. Maybe you guys don't give a shit about what type of oil goes into the car but given the fact that this was done by the dealer. Who knows what else the dealer had done wrong to the car? This is enough to keep me thinking twice about buying the car

Different oils can be used. I know depending on enviroment, you can use anything from 0-10 in the first part. Normally the second number is 30, but I am not sure if 20 would "kill" it?

Hey Twisteds2k, I appreciate you putting in the hard work to help me sell my car. I'm glad that you took your time to post this thread. You are a vital person to these forums, and I'm sure without your hardwork and input, the Portland forum would come crashing down on itself.

I'm also assuming that you have taken identical F20C's and tested one with 10w30 and the other with 5w20, and then compared the results after 13,000 miles. I'm glad we have people like you to make the world a better place.

Thanks a lot...asshole.

Wow wow wow... I dont think Twisted meant any harm by posting this.... He was just watching out for other Portland guys.


Have we forgotten the brotherhood!?!?!




Carrnut, good luck with the sale
