My wife's 2011 CR-V recommends 0W-20 only. I was able to find 0W-20 Mobil 1 at Wally-World for the first change, but the greeters must have stolen all the rest, and there's none on the shelf for the 2nd oil change. No 5W-20 Mobil 1 either (those darn greeters!).
Anyway, I picked up Castrol Edge 5W-20. Whatcha think?
Will 5W-20 be okay?

5W20 is fine.
I'm cheap too but I won't spend a dime at Walmart.

Also, if you think finding 0w-20 is bad, try finding 5W-40 next time you're in a parts store. Damn VWs.
