This question may have been asked before but whats the best grade oil and brand to use for those highway runs? I imagine that it has to be an oil that does not degrade over time....I have a 2005 altis but not revving the car on the highway. Just normal driving and acceleration. I would like to know for this 3zz-fe 28000k engine but discuss for other engines.. I know the 20 valve is popular among us as well as the 4efte....Discuss..

the recommended oil (weight/body) is the best oil, I'm sure the manufacturers factor in all levels of load when choosing oil, the band is dependent on the owner
