I just bought the car, it now needs an oil change, I just don't know what kind it needs. I live in Southern California, some one at a oil change station told me that it could be 5W-30 as long as its synthetic. But I bought the haynes book and it says that it needs 20W-50. So I don't know which one to listen to. Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.
