5K with dino, 7.5K and up with most synths. another thing people always forget to maintain is tire pressure. if you want good mpg and to avoid a blowout on the highway, check them bad boys every week... --B

Pennzoil Platinum 5W-20. I bought a couple of cases of it for my Mazda3 and have been using it in the wife's Yaris ever since I saw the 5W-20 TSB.

For me it seems to strike a nice balance between performance and price, but I wouldn't say a word against anyone running Torco, Amsoil, or any other premium oil. Once you get past the absolute bottom-of-the-barrel brands they're all decent oil, it all comes down to preference and how much value you put on that extra little piece of mind.

I like to run mobil1. Currently running valvoline full synthetic (came free with the car). Any Full synthetic oil is good IMO.

PENNZOIL Platinum ( synthetic ) 5w-30 in '08 Liftback and the PLATINUM 5w-20 in the '08 sedan . Can get the PLATINUM for less than $4 a quart when on sale ( A.A.P. or PEPBOYS ) or at WALLYMART in a 5 quart jug for less than $20 .

not to use ...
in the T.S.B. by TOYOTA says 5w-20 only , not 0w-20 . Here's the T.S.B. number , TS-EG018-06 ( the last 2 digits are the year T.S.B. was / is released ) . Got the TOYOTA service department where the '08 YARIS sedan was purchased to e-mail the T.S.B. as confirmation and saved the T.S.B. ( copied from P.C. ) in case of warranty issues with the use of the 5w-20 , says 5w-30 on oil cap and in owners manual . Best to be safe than sorry .
