Your vehicle has a recommended lubricant symbol of api*. Products that meet this specification have an international lubricant standardization and approvals committee (Islac) rating of GF-2, and will display the american petroleum institute "Starburst" certification symbol. Refer to your owners manual for specific O.E.M. viscosity and temperature recommendations.
