Chevy calls for 5W20 for V6 oil. I have newer vehicle using 0W20. I'd like to use 0W20 on V6.

Any comment?

Thanks all. My old memory and seldom oil changes failed me. The filler cap says 5w30. I use full synthetic and has been dealer oil and filter then DIY with Mobil 1. Thinking Kirkland or Wal-Mart may be good low cost alternstive to Mobil 1, yes 5W30.

Truck is very low mileage. So last oil change was further back in time than recommended.

Getting hard to find someone to recycle used oil.

Just getting back to conversation. I was at Costco today and purchased Kirkland full synthetic and found an "oil charge $1.40" so I stopped at help desk and asked about Costco handling recycle given I get an oil charge added to my purchase. Person on drdk had no answer. Interested on Costco experiences. Is hard to ask corporate Costco since they shut off their email interface to customers.

Intetesting. I checked again with my township county repair facility and was yold they would again accept oil. Didn't say when as they were updating tank and moving on property.. County will take limited amounts on hazardous was days couple times a year.

Wonder why I don't get email notice of activity on posts even when I create them.
