2002 Acura TL Type S - Can Wrong Oil damage motor?
2002 TL type S
105XXX miles
found out previous owner was using 10w-30 full synthetic oil on this car for over a year...looks as if the car calls for a 5w-20 i believe and although the spec doesnt deter synthetic, I was curious if I should continue with the 10w-30, or switch back to 5w-20 as per spec?
I have heard a heavier weight can be good but can also build up more sludge...so help me out please...thanks
