Oil weight question

Hey guys I just bought a 2004 DC Tacoma v6. My question is it has 5w-20 as per the sticker on the windshield. I believe Toyota recommends 5w-30 would it be any problem ??? Or should I change the oil to 5w30 or just wait till the next interval and then out 5w30. Thanks

 

Myself I would just wait till the next oil change.

 

Wait and then change to Shell t6 full synthetic.

 

5-20 is pretty wimpy. I would drain that shit ASAP. I drive my truck pretty hard and use 20-50 in the warm season.

I'm not an expert though hopefully some oil masters can chime in.

 

Mmmm what a dilemma

 

Wait until the next oil change. Use what Toyota recommends in weight but go full synthetic.

 

I have a 2004 as well, the oil cap on the engine block says to use 5w30

I wouldn't stress over it, wait 3000 miles and switch it when you do the oil change.

 

5-30 is an around oil for cold and warm climate. I personally use 10-30 since I live in California and have yet to go camping in -30f weather.
