Hi guys, just had my first run in servicing at my dealer and was told I will be supplied 5w-30 for my service intervals. I'm from Singapore at it is rather warm and humid here and this is what they recommend. What are your views on this guys?

Thanks ;)

I believe the owner's manual calls for 0W-20. You may want to check that. And if that's the case, I don't know how trusting I'd be of a service department that doesn't know that.

Most anywhere outside of N. America specs 0W-20 and 5W-30. If that's the case for Singapore, then you're fine!

Ah thanks! That clears up for me!

Cheers!
