I'd stick with 5W20. Manufacturers recommend a certain weight oil for a reason. Todays engines are built with such tight clearances that 30W in this engine may not get to all the places it needs to be due to it being thicker than the 20W. Better safe than sorry if it ever came down to an engine warranty claim.
