    Using 5w50 in a 5w30 application

    Came across this ad on kijiji. They've been using Syntec 5w50 in a 3800 series ii engine. I sent a message, the response was simply it's the best oil you can put in your car. The car has low mileage, but how much wear from the poor cold flow properties of the 5w50...
