Default Oil Question
I just changed my oil and put 5w-30 Mobile 1 Synthetic in the Jeep. I forgot it take 5w-20. Will 5w-30 hurt my engine? Sorry for the stupid question.

Your Mobile 1 5W-30 won't hurt a thing. I'd just switch over to 5W-20 at your next service and not worry about it, but if it weighs heavily on your conscience, just call your dealership's service dept. for their blessing.

Shouldn't be a problem, hell there were some early on that claimed some dealers were using 5W-30 for their oil changes.
