I need to have the oil changed in my 8, and I have no idea what kind to use. I have read posts about this, but I sill have no clue. Can I take it to a oil change place, will they put the right oil in. Does it use the same as other cars (10w30) I just don't know.. Please someone help me out on this.. Thanks Seleya...

Castrol GTX 5w20
Just the conventional stuff, no synthetic
A quick lube place should put the right weight oil in but they really cant be trusted for sure. I buy my oil and filter and take it to a shop and have them change it for me. Usually $10 if you provide the oil and filter. The filter is really hard to get to.
BTW: WIX filter

4 qts of oil, the filter is WIX part #51365. Anywhere should have the oil but it is a little scarce sometimes. O'Reillys & NAPA both carry WIX products. I would spend the extra $2 to go with the WIX filter. Just about any shop can do the oil change for you. I take mine to a muffler shop of all places.
