I'm using Pennzoil Platinum. It's supposedly rated as the best.

I'm more concerned about the grade rather than the brand...think 5w30 would be fine?

Oh, grade. Well in the midwest we change with the seasons. Better to let someone in CA answer that.

It could only help. However, I'm pretty sure yours comes with Mobil 1 0W40 as well. The dealer can cinfirm this.
