Hello,
I'd like to compare cold flow abilities of 2 gearoils (both 75W). I can only find informations on cinematic viscosities at 40°C and 100°C but I cannot find the informations on dynamic viscosities although this is the main value that determines the cold index W!
The gearoils I'm interested in are:
-TransElf TRJ 75W80 GL5 (Elf)
-Gear 300 75W90 GL5 (Motul)
I've contacted both Elf and Motul and they cannot give me this information (they do not know where to find it..............).
Does anybody knows where I may find this info?
Additionally, I'm interested in this topic because I'd like to know if a 75W90 oil (Motul) may have better cold weather abilities than a 75W80 oil (Elf). I know both are 75W but people from Redline told me that any 75W90 will remain thicker when cold compared to a 75W80......and this is true for cinematic viscosities. But I suspect that the 75W90 from Motul (pour point: -60°C) would flow better than the 75W80 from Elf (pour point: -40°C) even if it has a higher viscosity at 40°C. What do you think?
