Ten differences between 0w40 and 0w20 engine oils. 1. Top-end oil pressure. 0w20 has a higher top-end oil pressure, which means it will lubricate the engine better at high speeds and RPMs. 0w40 has a lower top-end oil pressure, which gives it the benefit of low-speed protection. 2.

a) Viscosity. 5w30 is 1.7 times more viscous than 0w20. A lower viscosity rating means it will flow better than 5w30 at the starting temperature. Thicker oils provide better protection against freezing. However, 5W30 gets thicker than both 0W20 and 5W20 in high temperatures because of the high viscosity rating.

Features of 0w20 engine oil. Engine oils with SAE marking 0w20 are multigrade products. The specified oil has a minimum viscosity of 5.6 mm 2 /s at an engine operating temperature of 100 °C or 212 °F and is meant to operate at temperatures from -15 °C to + 20 °C or 5 °F to + 68 °F.. The temperature range is shown by the first digit "0" (winter index) labeled on the oil recipient, as

The ans is Yes, you can you 5w30 instead of 0w20. You won't find any massive differences, but in extreme colder weather conditions, you will find a performance drop by using 5w30. Also, It depends on the Variable Valve Timing (VVT). If your car engine has VVT, It's recommended to don't change the weight and stick with the manufacturers Alot of people think the W stands for weight, but really stands for winter. And i would put 0w30 if u live in cold areas, if not go with what the cap says. 0w30 is a better oil than 5w30. It's got a more consistent viscosity over a wider temperature range. It achieves this with a higher percentage of synthetic oil. ^{Also of note: Mobil 1's 0w20 is on the thick end of the 20 weight scale. Their 0w30 is on the thin end of the 30 weight scale. The functional difference between the two is actually tiny. Other brands may be different (ie. Redline's one of the thicker 30w oils).} ^{La promotion des huiles moteurs SAE 0W-20 et SAE 0W-16 a aidé les équipementiers à atteindre certaines de ces cibles en matière d'économie de carburant et d'émissions de GES. Les huiles moteurs Pennzoil Platinum SAE 0W-16 et SAE 0W-20 respectent et surpassent les exigences relatives à ces grades de viscosité.} Jan 18, 2022. #1. I keep my home snowblower in an unheated shed and during winter the electric start/er freezes so I usually have to start it manually. I've been finding it stiff to turn over when the temperature is around 1F or colder. Today, I installed a new spark plug and changed the oil from Mobil 1 5w30 to Mobil 1 0W30 thinking that the

The difference between 5w30 and 0w20 is their viscosity. The viscosity 5w30 is 1.7 times higher in comparison to 0w20. Due to this 5w30 usage is preferable in warmer weather, and driving modes are generally linked with idle time's long period in traffic jams. 5w30 is commonly used for diesel and petrol engines in light cars and small sedans.

There is actually very little difference between m1 ep 0w20 and m1 afe 0w30 usually about 20% thicker not the 50% you would assume . Revving2Redline. Joined Feb 25, 2014 Messages 6,235 Location Kansas (316) May 30, 2015 #15 I'd go 0w30 and 0w20 during winter. 30wt just makes me feel better but them pushing a full syn 0w20 is good too. G. 5W-30 oil has a noticeably greater temperature range as compared to 0W-20 oil as it can be used down to -31°F to 104°F. 0W-20 is better for cold starts and 5W-30 oil is better for extreme heat but 0W-20 is more expensive than 5W-30 both of which are more expensive than conventional oil. SAE 0W-20 is the good choice for good fuel economy and good starting in cold weather. If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE 5W-20 oil may be used. However, it must be replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil change". So you can either trust your car manufacturer or the sales department .. your choice.

The 0w30 motor is a lot thinner than the 5w30 motor oil. This means that you can save more. It is also not stated that the 5w30 motor oil cannot increase the fuel economy, but it does less than the 0w30 motor oil. Comparing it to the other high viscosity oils, the 5w30 motor oil can improve your fuel economy.

There is a big difference between 0w and 5w in extreme cold temps. J. JOD. Joined Sep 10, 2009 Messages 3,577 Location PNW/WA. Nov 16, 2012 #6 M1 0w30 AFE.

For the 2018 Fit, Honda recommends a 0W16 or 0W20 API-certified oil. For the 2018 Camry with the A25A-FKS 2.5L four-cylinder engine, Toyota recommends 0W16 oil that meets API SN Resource Conserving standards. But, in the next paragraph, the manual states, "If 0W16 is not available, 0W20 oil may be used. However, it must be replaced with 0W16
