Hey gang,

I'm new to the Mitsubishi Endeavor family. Just purchased an 06 LS in Dover White Pearl with the Sand Blast interior. Luv it! A look in the owner's manual recommends 5W-20 motor oil first, but 10W-30 is allowed. What's the consensus with you guys? Do you all opt for the 5W-20 allowing for better fuel economy? Thanks!!

Jeff

I use mobil 1 --- 5w 30

It seems to enjoy it

I do burn oil, but I drive it onthe autobahn between 80 and 105 mph

5W20 is good oil. The Motorcraft Brand from Wallmart is a good value.
