    Can I just use vegetable oil? I got a jug of that. Are there any master techs and/or Google mechanics that can tell me the viscosity of Crisco?

    Interesting. Heinz and French's obviously developed their ketchup and mustard products side by side for even dispersion and stiction.

    To be fair, he said he bought it for 37k dollars, not 37k miles. That being said, OP's logic and ethics are still questionable at best. Funny how he disappeared after the last thing he said was he was taking it to the dealer yesterday to purposely not disclose any of the info shared here, hoping they'd pay for it all. Not a good look for a 25 yr old Marine.

    I saw the OP fighting with some old man in the street…..,screaming “ they told me you’re not a master mechanic on TW” as he kicked him while he was down.

    It doesn't say this, All it says is don't use 10w30 and up if you see low temps. Nothing about preferring 0w-20.

    Translated page
    Engine oil selection
    “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” has been used in your Toyota vehicle.
    original Toyota engine. Use a “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil”
    Toyota certified "Genuine Toyota Motor Oil" or another that is
    equivalent that conforms to the following grade and viscosity values.
    Oil Grade:
    0W-20, 5W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30:
    Multigrade motor oil SL “Energy-Conserving”, SM “EnergyConserving”, SN “Resource-Conserving” of the API grade or engine oil
    ILSAC multigrade.
    15W-40:
    API grade SL, SM or SN multigrade engine oil
    Recommended viscosity (SAE):
    If you use SAE 10W30 motor oil or a higher viscosity oil
    In very low temperatures, it can
    be difficult to start the engine, so
    SAE 0W-20, 5W-20 recommended
    or 5W-30 or one less
    goo.
