0w-8 has gone mainstream. M1 AFE 0w-8.

[JavierH19]

I have no idea how long this has been available but walmart is already selling M1 AFE 0w-8 directly and at a reasonable price. There's only one review from feb 10.

Here's the info on mobil's site. I'm surprised to see tbn listed and it being 9 as well. With a vii of 144 and that kv 40 and 100 spread it must be majority pao.

The second image with red is motul 0w-8. Seeing hths in the 1's will never not be uncomfortable.

So does everyone think your car will go 200k on 0-8 oil?

If the oil temp doesn't go beyond 170f.

I hate to highjack a thread but is 0w20 oil safe in the long run? I've used it since I got my 2012 Honda Civic because of the number on the oil cap but a lot of people think these 0 weight synthetics do more harm than good.

With some serious oil cooling I don't see why not.

But don't you get more emissions at lower engine temps?

They probably have to come with factory oil cooler to keep the temperature low, or the engine power density low (hybrid?) for that to work. Again, the engine has to be designed for it and not just tested for it with reduced safety margin like 0w20.

Ah 2002 era Honda Green Oil is now mainstream.

but a lot of people think these 0 weight synthetics do more harm than good.

so you think 0w40 is too thin? Who is alot of people?

Hard to say. I’ll take the bet on the Toyota making it with an 0W8 over the Hyundai/Kia making it with 5W30.

HTHS of 1.8, no thanks, time to stock up on my favorite Mobil 1 oils or just start using HPL.

What the heck is a “0 weight synthetic”??

I've stumbled across quite a few old fashioned thinking saying theres no way 0 weight oil could protect and engine, here and elsewhere.

0wXX weight oil.
