I use to use the recommend 10w-30, but with my car being seven almost eight years old next month, it started leaking and no one was able to find the source. Since then, I was told to use Valvoline 20w-50 since it is a lot thicker. It works great and doesn't leak as much at all.

See if that helps..otherwise, a new oilpan gasket is probably the best long-term fix.
