Glad to see you doing this. Rhino ramps @ Wal-Mart perfect for the low clearance on the AERO.
13mm 6 point socket and torque is 20 ft. lbs.
Dealer probably used the semi-synthetic 5W-30 oil at your inspection. You can switch to the full synthetic at any time. Mobil 1 0W-40 for extreme, or full synthetic oil 5W-30/0W-30/5W-40 as the basic recommendation (see this in your owners manual). API SJ ILSAC GF-3. I find that most synthetic oil on the shelf in my area is SL rated ( even better than SJ) and GF-3.
