First, here's a link to an article about the new 5w30:

I'm currently running the 5w40 variety of Delo 400 LE in my Saab and seems to be doing well, but I have noticed a decrease in mpg over when I was using 10w30. Now that I also have my 2.2l LLV and my mom just snagged a nice 2.0l Stratus off state surplus, I'm rethinking my oil selection. I'd like to use an oil that can be used on all 3 cars, so I was going to call my local distributor about Delo 400 LE 10w30 conventional. Now seeing they now have a 5w30 Synthetic, I will also see if that's available.
Since the 5w30 is SN, I wonder if the add pack will be a lot more conservative than that of the SL/SM 10w30 conventional.
As for the few gallons of 400 LE 5w40 I have remaining, those might be going to my brother's "new to him" 2006 Volvo S60 (which the oil filler grate looked heavily varnished with some signs of sludge...)
Anyone currently running the new Delo 5w30 synthetic or Delo 10w30 conventional? For those running the 10w30 variety, where have you found the stuff aside from a distributor?
