On the other hand.... you may crater that valve-train.

Never Cratered a valve train let alone know what that even means (lol) and I don't think I want to find out, well then 5w30 it is then but which though since I've always been a RP believer but I'm open to try any other oil that's why I asked between mobil 1 or Castrol edge

The same smart engineers who's valve train materials cause excessive noise in some cars prompting Nissan to pimp an over priced non synthetic oil as the 'solution'? :tiphat:

I have lots of respect for automotive engineers but the 5/30 rec is cafe crap. Overseas you have a range of acceptable oils for our car. :)
