Supertech is cheap and works good in my car
0w-20 will work fine. Can even use 5w30 once you hit 80k+ miles.
the 16 and now 8 are for CAFE reasons, not engine needs/design.

therefore more oil loss at higher ranges so it's a very poor advice to only think of it as 10-15k for every car
still do 5k on synthetic to actually not RUN out of oil or the older the oil the more containments build up which is the whole point of changing oil

wonder if i were to switch to a 5w-30 it would make a whole lotta difference in performance or longevity ?
mine is high mileage almost 150k miles.
I don't really do to save the $. Too many experiences of oil change places even dealer screwed up. This year alone friends and co-workers. Oil filter put on leaking due to didn't notice jeep had old filter gasket come off from oil filter and Valvoline jammed on new one.
Another 2 cranked on drain plug cracked oil pan on 2019 Hyundai that already burns oil and all drained out day later. Honda and separate Hyundai dealer overfilled. Quick change places caught not changing filter.
Who knows what crap oil the dump in and $1 filter when changing you $120. No thanks.
Ramps and hour of my time max is same as time driving to and from places that screw up and kill cars.
Can't do it yourself? Team with a buddy show up have cup of coffee and chat as you both do it using their tools.
Can also just find a good local shop and pay $130 or whatever. Cheaper than new engine and higher car payment.
Many don't mind you bringing filter and oil if you are loyal and actually do repairs they recommend.
Might be a while before you give them work so just be nice to them. It's very tough to survive as repair shop with bad car designs and junk new parts now.
Good cars really don't need brakes or tires for at least 50-60,000 miles. Tie rods, control arms etc usually very long, struts 100,000+. Junk sway bar stabilizers often sooner. Just change and check oil maybe gdi cleaning each year or every few.
- Flooring Finish
- Mold oil it helps lubricate molds so they fall easily
- Oil-based lubricant (bike chains and hydraulics)
- Fence stain
The car manufacturers' recommended intervals will get the car out of the warranty period of 5 years and 60K to 100K miles. That's all they care about.
But if you want it to last 200K+ , change it more often. $20 for an oil change is LOT cheaper than a new engine.
