Default 2015 IS250 f sport Oil Change

Hi all,
I need to do an oil change on my IS250 and I know the manual says 0-20 oil but can I use 5-20? And also how many quarts does it take? I知 due for an oil change and this is the first time i値l Do it on this car since I got it used and dealers try to overprice which is why I値l do it myself. Any answers to the oil question would be highly appreciated.

You can use whatever oil suits your needs. That is totally up to you. But, you've read the manual already, so you know the expected/recommended oil is 0W-20.

I have seen 5W-30 used before, but not 5W-20. Is the oil you want to use a full synthetic?

Yes, the oil I want to use is full synthetic. MOBIL 1 to be exact
