    I use Mobil 1 10w20 in the Altima and my truck. I also use Mobil 1 or Bosch filters, depending on which one is in stock.

    I used to run castrol so sludge didn't happen to me. But I have switched to Mobil 1 full synthetic. Used to run Fram filters but recently me n Bogger have been running different filters and saving them to cut them open to see which is better.
