go with waht your owners manual says. My Silverado calls for 5w30, Thats pretty light i think for a truck like mine. But 5w30 is prolly what your car takes.

Yeah, most of the 3.4's and even the 3.8's go with 5w30. Tried 10w30 and didn't like the cold weather starting sounds, so went back to 5 weight. I like Mobile1 myself and always a new filter.
