Pour Point of QSUD 10W30

[SpeedyG75VW]

I find it interesting that the pour point of QSUD 10W30 is -51 degC, while the 0W20 is only -45 degC. I would have thought the 0W20 would have a much lower pour point than the 10W30.

Lets not rule out a typo but interesting all the same.
And to soil the thread further one testing source claims the 0w20 weight gives more wear protection than
the 5w20 QSUD..........

I did notice the 5w20 and 30 weight are both -42

I find it hard to believe that 10w pours at that low of a temp!

Do beware of typos, but the real issue is not to worry about pour point, but the actual cold cranking and MRV numbers. RP's 15w-40 had a pour point of something like -45 C. That doesn't mean it's a good idea to use it at that temperature, though.
