Default What Engine Oil for 2013 XF 3.0 SC ??

Just replaced my 2009 XF with a 2013 XF AWD. The owwners manual for the 2013 3.0 SC says use SAE 0w-20 oil, and if unavailable, SAE 5w-20 can be used. The oil filler cap on the engine, in yellow painted letters, says SAE 5w-20. So which oil does Jaguar really recommend to be used in this V6??

By the way, loved the 2009, but the 2013 is definitely better!

My Canadian spec car has a black oil filler cap which states 0W 20 but because that was not available to my mechanics when they replaced my engine they used 5W 20. Either will be fine to use. The key is the specification number. You MUST use oil meeting that spec.

My engine was replaced right when the oil change was due, heck of a way to get an oil change.
