i run 5w30 due to the freezing temps here in the winter....even if there werent freezing temps 5w30 would still be a good choice. as far as the tranny issue is concerned people say dont change it IF ITS ALREADY SLIPPING. if its behaving normally i wouldnt hesitate to change it. hope this helps.

nice info thanks !! i had a issue today......car has been running fantastic ever since the egr clean up! today i hit the pedal down to the floor to see its potential! it felt like 2 sec late of response....but ran great ! then later on i drove agin(about 30min ago)and when i let go of the gas to just cruise it was surging a bit from like 2 & half rpm DOWN to 1rpm...kinda wiered like it wanted to down shift. then i stopped at a gas station put it on park and it started surging from 1rpm to 2rpm for like 30 sec and then it stopped! any clues? iac valve? maybe the egr passages a bit dirty from the inside? a bit of dirt did go inside a bit when i was unclogging it cause i forgot i needed a vacuum to suck out dirt! let me know ASAP PLZ !! THANK YOU
