So they did put 0w-20 oil in as per above, but. The service manager came out and said if I wanted 0-20 used for future oil changes I'd have to pay a 'premium' for it. I asked if it was syntetic, or a syn-blend, he said it wasn't, that it is just regular 0-20, but is a bit more expensive. He said Toyota is rewriting the manual to some extent on recommended oil.
Still think it's kind of dumb that there's (will be) an extra charge to to get the dealer to use the oil Toyota recommends.
I asked about doing oil changes myself while it's still under warranty. Apparantly as long as I keep receipts, and use Toyota's filters, there's no problem. At around 15,000km I might switch to a synthetic 0-20 and do my own oil. I have in the past for previous vehicles, so it's not a problem. I can probably do it faster myself than them too. So far it's been about 1.5 hours for them to do it.
