Here in Alberta we get down to -30 and -40 sometimes and the temp will judt stay there. Most vehicles seem to be specd for 5w-x
I was curious on if it’s a no brainer just to run 0w-x for the vehicles for winter. Seems like a little better cold flow shouldn’t do any harm. Or would you only stay at 5w-20 if the car is specd for 5w 20
as far as I read and unless im wrong, ir seems like running a lower first number just helps for cold flow and the main number that matters is the number After which is operating temp.
the car in question is a Mazda 2.3L
