Hi all,
I am looking to do my first oil change (do it myself) this weekend. At this point, I think I am going to go with Pennzoil Ultra 5/30 based on some comments among the forums. It is at my Walmart for $27. I am still torn on the filter. Walmart's selection is not much, but they do have higher end Fram filters (tough guard) for $9 and wondered if that would be sufficient? I know Pep Boys has a larger selection, so I may go there for another brand (ie. Purolator).
I realize there is couple of oil threads with different topics, but I was wondering if I could start one for myself or others that are looking for a cut and dry answer on what oil and filter has become your 'go to'? If you'd like to elaborate, please let me/us know any reason for your choice, so that first and future oil change can be done with some confidence. Thanks again for any comments.
