So all you 20-weight proponents can stick it in your ear. This engine ran good on the 5W30 oil I was putting in. Dealer wrecked it. I will Trade for Nissan Rogue or sinilar, and Silver"worm"glow can buy my spouses destroyed trade-in because the oil is perfect. Moronic Nonsense!

There are MILLIONS of Camry and other Toyota vehicles running 20 weight right now. MILLIONS. And those MILLIONS have no engine problems.

MMMMIIIIILLLLLLLLIIIIOOONNNSSSSS. All over the nation.

I would suggest an adult night school course in statistics for you. It seems you need to educate yourself.

Show me the engine failure rate statistics. You have NO information. This information doesn't
exist in the public domain. You are making up data (74% of alll statistice are made up on the spot). Plus it doesn't matter, Our engine failed. My neighbors Rav4 has a bad engine rap also. He put QS higher milage in it and it didn't quiet it.

BTW Silver, you have no credibility here amoungst educated adults.

VW/porsche/Audi I suppose are the only ones smart enough to spec the A3/B3.
