Spent a couple of hours hitting 4 or 5 oil manufacturers websites and looking at product data sheets for different viscosity ratings. To my surprise they are all very close at viscosity ratings at different temperatures.I was surprised to see that most 5w30 is slightly thinner than 0w30 if I can...

Originally Posted By: SHOZ 0w vs 5w is a cold weather start issue only. 90% of engine wear is at cold start. Fast spinning turbos need oil immediately if not sooner. That has been my thinking. Although like I posted earlier I don't know a whole lot about synthetics and intricacies of each...

Originally Posted By: SHOZ I use M1 0w20 in my Accent and 0w40 in my Genesis Coupe turbo. What's the chances of having an oil related failure on these oils that would void the warranty? So you have the same turbo engine as mine correct? What brand 0w40?

Been doing 3k for 30 years on mineral oil. Gonna do 5k with synthetic. My dealer uses Mobil 1 5w20. Whats the difference in thickness between 5w20 and 0w30? I know very little about synthetics other than there very confusing.

My dealership uses Mobil 1 5w 20. What exactly is shearing.

Originally Posted By: lubedude13 Why not use a 0w30 such as Amsoil or Mobil? Its a coincidence you mentioned that because that was going to be my next question. Would 0w20 or 0w30 be good for my turbo engine? I've read good things about castrol 0w30.

Hi guys, Just bought a 2013 Santa Fe turbo. Manual calls for 5w20,5w30 or 10w30. This is my first turbo so I want to use synthetic. Still debating what brand/weight to use. Any advice on that would be welcome. Anyways, does anybody know why Hyundai isn't specifying 0w oil like most other...
