In the video below it seems like the conventional oil runs too thick when cold even though it's rated at 5W-30,
Also, is anybody running 5W-30 instead of 5W-20 per owners manual.
I read that 5W-30 is actually better when the engine is running hot since it has higher viscosity and slightly thicker than 5W-20.
And manufacturers recommend less viscosity 5W-20 for better MPG ratings but not necessary better for the engine to use thinner oil when hot, is there any truth to that?
