Motor oil???

Question:
what kind of motor oil should u use in a 07 camry, the manual calls for of course toyota oil, but do you have to put that kind in? and it says to use SAE 5W -20 or 0W-20 for a four cyl. and sae 5w-30 or 10w-30 for a v6 but how do i know if my car is v6 or 4 cyl.

The V6 has a silver plastic engine cover that says V6 on it above the Toyota logo.

You don't have to use Toyota-brand oil. Any brand name oil like Castrol, Pennzoil, Valvoline, or Mobil will do if it's an acceptable weight - 5W-20 for 4-cyl.

Some have argued that 5W-30 oil is better because 5W-20 is too thin, and that the manufacturer recommends 5W-20 only because they wanted better fuel economy numbers to provide to the EPA. I would stick with the factory-recommended specs for now.

I recommend changing the oil more often that the factory recommendations. 3,500 miles is my recommendation for conventional oils for a Toyota 4-cyl. 4,000 miles for semi-synthetic, and 5,000 for full synthetic oils.

If you don't know whether your car has a V6 or a 4-cyl, I highly recommend that you don't change your own oil. You're asking for trouble. Just take it to the dealer, they'll use the appropriate oil.

To tell how many cylinders you have look at your spark plug wires and count how many there are the one in the center doesn't count but generally you are okay to run a 5w-30 or just plain 30w they are more of a guidline as to what you should use
