    When Ford switched to 5w20 motor oil, they back certified many of their engines for the new viscosity.

    Has Toyota or Honda done the same now that 0w16 is available?

    I was picking oil for the Camry, and noticed even the Walmart brand was available in 0w16 that the Camry and Rav4 now use. Labels mentioned Honda, But I don't know which models.
