You risk damaging your cats and engine components. Check your owners manual. 6.5+/-0.01

Please stick with the recommended Mobil 1 5w-30 - contact Radautoworks or Gazzuzz or even Dru - all of them will ship to the moon and back.

If you must use Total Quartz based on availability - then it has to be Quartz 9000 5w-40. And you must drain and refill with the correct oil weight subsequently

Goodmorning guys,pls i need help with my 2002 RX300.it's bringing out black smoke. A scan was run on it and it showed P1130 (air fuel ratio sensor and P0174(system too lean bank 1and 2) All the sensors have been changed with no result. Another scan was done and thesame codes still came up. I have change the MAF sensor and plugs as well without any result. It gets normal for just few days when the plugs and injector nozzles were cleaned but went bad again after 4 to 5 days. Also,a lot of fuel consumption

It has nothing to do with your oil change, unless of course you had leaks. Dont panic, get a qualified mechanic to check the easy part - your fuel system, ignition coils and spark plugs, as well as starter fuse relay.
Also, get an electrician to check your battery, voltage regulator, and alternator.
These are all very easy to check, any kazeem with a small bulb and screw driver can run this simple diagnosis.

Have you had any episode of overheating, even if not recently?

#modified - thought you had a Benz, just saw the dashboard pictures

Please house, I need advice of which car to get between Toyota Camry 2010 LE/XLE and Lexus ES 350 2010 model. Someone advised me that Camry always have shock absorber issue and he advice I go for Lexus but my issue is I don't really have enough info to guide my choice between the two cars in terms of fuel consumption, maintenance and reliability. This will be my first time of using a car and I need advice. Thank you all.

Lexus is not a first time car. You have a lot of lessons to learn so get the Camry. Save the Lexus for next car

I disagree. He should get the ES. Not mechanically different from the Camry for the most part, and is a better car all-around.

Yes, your budget should be enough, I believe. Just look well. Or pre-order.

Not bad for a 3.5L.v6 but since you're coming from Corolla you would definitely feel the impact
