Your owners manual tells you what is acceptable.



My '06 says   10/40 Fully Synthetic or Semi-Synthetic. It also metions by name Mobil 1-T ....

 

I was actually surprised it was 10/40 ... thought for certain it would read

5/40 fully synthetic.  



I've got 2300 miles on it ...... I'll follow the manual then go to 5/40 Rotella Synthetic.  



I have not cross referenced filters yet... just bought 3 from Baxter .... I hate not having them on hand!  On my steamer the KAW Concours and a Honda filter were a match.
