The 2010 Prius uses synthetic 0W-20 oil.
Medium grade
SAE 5w30 any major brand conventional or synthetic oil.
You can use 10W-30 weight motor oil in your Mitsubishi. A heavier motor oil can be used in extreme climates.
Motor oils come in different grades. The higher the grade, the better quality the motor oil. Some high end vehicles require better quality motor oil to run at their utmost. Otherwise, any grade will do.
5W30.
SAE30
Motor oil type shold be chosen based on where you live not the type of car you drive. If by type you are refering to grade of oil. If by type you mean brand then it does not matter as long as it has an SAE approved symbol all motor oils are the same per grade. Addatives in motor oil make them different not the brand.
5w30
No.First the viscosity is wrong. SAE 30 is a single-grade motor oil. The 30 is a designation of the oil's viscosity grade according to the SAE. The 25W-50 is a multi-grade motor oil, meaning 25 grade viscosity in Winter (hence the "W") and 50 grade viscosity in normal operating conditions. If you wanted to match a multi-grade motor oil in viscosity to a SAE-30 grade oil, then you would need a multi-grade oil that had ended in 30, for example 10W-30.Second, if you have been using a single-grade motor oil, you should not switch to a multi-grade because most single-grade motor oils do not have the detergent additives found in multi-grades. Switching to a multi-grade with a detergent present could suddenly dislodge gunk deposits creating a problem with solids and significantly decreased lubricant performance.Now, with all that being said, if you drive a really old diesel truck and change your oil constantly, then the 25W-50 would probably be a great choice. Since the extreme pressure and heat in old vehicles tends to thins the oil, the high viscosity is probably helpful. And, if you change the oil often, the detergent will do you more good then bad.
The recommended oil grade is 10W/30.
any good multi grade oil will work fine.
