Default Dealer: Valvoline 5W-30 Me: Mobil 1 0W-40
Mobil 1 can be found at your local AutoZone for 4.99 a quart. You'll need approximately 7 quarts for the job.

Good luck!

Default my dealer recommended Mobil 1 0W-40, said that was the factory recommendation
You should see if your dealer has it on hand, mine did.
