Re: 5W-20 in a Camry

rimfire,22,

Your oil consumption will probably increase slightly with the 5W-20 oil. Since you are seeking better fuel mileage, you might achieve about 1/2 mile per gallon more, if that. If the oil consumption increases, you will have to add more oil between oil changes; this at about $6 a quart for the Mobil1. It's really a trade-off. IMHO, I would just continue to do what you are doing.

Mike
