Well we have to use all that Dexos1 bull crap, just letting you guys know who has not changed their oil yet (my first change was last week)
I ended up using Mobil 1, Extended Performance 5W-30 with a K&N oil filter from Amazon...if people are worried "Oh!! but Dexos is not stuck on the bottle!!" Don't worry about it, Mobil 1 surpasses Dexos standards. Walmart bottles of Mobil 1 Extended Performance actually had the Dexos label on them, but not on the regular Mobil 1 Synthetic...hmmm marketing ploy? I think so!! You could use the regular Mobil 1, but I like the added protection, considering it was only $4ish more then reg Mobil 1
If you don't want to spend the money on a K&N filter, I'd go with a Wix filter. Stay away from Fram and Bosch...they're garbage...or get the OEM one if you want to. My dealership put in my Mobil 1 Oil in my Terrain no questions asked, and they told me "It's better then the oil we use anyways" lol
Just a heads up (and she runs amazing now, better then she did with the original oil in it)
