Moving up a grade on my end has to do more with spirited driving behavior and seasonal weather. But also my engine is a naturally high revving one for its displacement size. Its getting very hot here in a couple of weeks where we even get high 70s - 80s Fahrenheit ambient in 5AM in the morning. As for choices, its a hard one, the regular PCMO has an impressive 4.28 HTHS viscosity where as the HDEO Premium and Supercar are in the low border 4 range with higher SAPS. Not sure if they will make a difference but doesn't hurt to have a little extra safety factor.

Interestingly, PP PCMO 5w-30 has a lower per quart price if you buy the 12x1 quart pack than the 4x1 gallon pack.

LOL!

You said this:

And then this:


Is your vehicule under warranty, or is it not?

Yes, I'm under warranty. My statement was to the previous person about using whatever oil I want. Being its okay for them to say that because it's not their vehicle under warranty.

Somewhat pertaining to the original post...

I struggle with understanding taking 0w20 and 5w20. Both have the EXACT SAME base stocks. Same additive packs. The only difference is the 5w20 has slightly less viscosity improvers as it covers less of a spread. Yet in many cases the 0w20 is deemed superior.

HPL NO VII 5w-20 has an HTHS value higher than most 5w-30’s out there. send it

This is the PDS of the HPL No VII. I don't understand how the Euro 5W-20 has a HTHS of ~3.27 while the Euro 10W-20 has an HTHS of ~2.8. If we look at the PCMO 0W-20 vs 5W-20, we see their HTHS is almost the same.
