Default Heading in for 32k service on Monday-->
I have been bringing my own oil since the 8k servicing. I've been using Mobil 1 Tri-Synthetic. I use 5W-30 in the winter months and 10W-30 in the summer months. I know what the manual says with regards to oil and what weight to use, but I want to know what the folk here use in their cars. Am I being overly cautious here, or are others just like me?

5W/30 Mobil 1 year 'round, although I'll go for 10W/30 in summer if it's cheaper on sale.
