ATTN: All South Florida TL'ers
I know the oil weight question is old, but help me out guys..I got my oil changed by Palm Beach Acura, and they used 10W-30..I was real pissed because that isn't the recommended oil for my TLS..But when I sat down with the service manager, he said that 5W-20 and 5W-30 are not good for the extremely hot weather in South Florida and that 10w-30 is what they put in every TLS /CLS, and that they have never had a problem or complaint..My question is what oil weight are the rest of you South Florida guys running in your TL..Also, I am seriously thinking about putting full synthetic in my TLS, so I need some recommendations as to what weight and brand of oil. Thanks guys.
