Yes I have used the syn oils you mentioned. I have to agree with your dealer on this. I know others feel different but in my own experiences in all cars I have / had, I saw no difference that would warrant the additional cost.

I think everyone needs to try the 0-20w for themselves and be honest with themselves. If they detect a difference worth the extra cost, stick with it by all means. (education costs money is what my father used to say)

I use a floor jack to lift the passenger side front and place a jack stand under the frame in order to get under and do the oil change.

Best of luck in your next oil change
