    5w30 is specified for the v6. I think 0-20 is for the 4cyl.

    I too use Mobil 1 and the toyota filters.

    Also, do I need to flush the regular oil out of my engine if I switch to mobile 1 full synthetic? I will be changing at 10k miles.

    I used to use mobile 1, I use valvoline now. No particular reason. Can't go wrong with any quality synthetic. However I am in the group using Toyota filters

    No need to flush, not sure how you would flush the oil anyways...

    It's not new, it's not Mexico
    Mobil 1 is good oil but so are modern conventional oils that meet current API certification.
    I used all of my Toyota Care services, then switched to Mobil 1. I switched to synthetic oil because I am out of warranty now and change my oil at 10000 miles with a filter change at 5000 miles. I only use Mobil 1 because my daughter in law gets a discount at Walmart.
