Guys. I've now switched to GC for my BMW.
I changed over last month before storing car.
My question is about cold temp. viscosity. I
read one post here that it is thicker than a
5w30 at most temps. So if it's -22 C (-10 F)
to 0 C (32 F), a 5w30 is better than a 0w30
because a 0w30's advantage is in extreme cold (Artic like tempertures.) How thick is it?
I always thought that all 0w30 oils had better
normal cold starting flow than 5w30 oils.
On a side note, I just saw the new 5w40
Bottles of Syntec which states on the back:
European Formula now Blended in The USA.
Will it be the same for the 0w30?
If so,
then everyone will be stocking up on the gold.
PS. I've built up a little stash of 22 bottles
of the green.
