Always changed the oil with Mobile 1 0W-40. If you DIY, they have it at Walmart. Oil/filter/etc comes out to around $75 versus $200+ at the dealer...not to mention it was one of the easiest cars ever to do it.

Jon, do you know when the oil was last changed? If you don't, then you need to change it so you have a baseline and can use whatever you would like.
