A Note On Viscosity
The viscosity you choose will depend on the climate in which you will be operating your vehicle. If you know things will be warm and won't be dropping below freezing, a 15W-30 is fine. But if you expect it may drop, or are unsure, 5W-30 or even 0W-30 might be the better choice. But just like everything else, always refer to your owners manual for specifics.
