They switched the Tundra from 5w30 to 0w20 because at 10,000 miles, thick deposits built in the oil pan. They went thinner so there would be less deposits at 10k. Yep, that makes little sense but they did that instead of goingback to 5k changes. 5w30 is probably better for the engine but would void the warranty.
I think Toyota needs to address the CAUSE of the deposits rather than diagnosing the EFFECTS. What's the root cause of the deposits? Carbon build up? Engine temp? Contaminants?
