Synthetic... yes ... ) weight, not necessary. The Scion line is only a year and a half old, not 12 years. Stick with the 5W30, and use Mobil 1.

Geez...lots of wrong information...you can to synthetic anytime after break in I usually go at about 2,000 miles......waiting is like saying..hmmm I am 50 yrs old should I start taking care of myself now???....also 0W30 viscocity changes with temperature... so it is the best choice
