:confused: Its almost time to change the oil in my 2001 VX for the first time since I bought it, and I was wondering what weight of Mobil 1 should I use? Should I use different weights in the Summer and Winter months or should I use the same weight year round? Thanks, Nancy :confused:

Yeah, I won't "except" anything less than 60 degrees this winter. :p
