Hi the car in question is a audi 2.7t with twin turbos.
so far i have used mobile 1 0w-40 car now has 77k. I have read that 0w-40 is not a good oil to use in summers because it is a thinner oil than 5w-40 from a couple of posts over at audiworld/forums.
I want to stick to vw approved oil and to make the oil a bit thicker should i try 5w-40 valvoline for the summers? The location is texas (where summer basically never ended) lol
i dont understand if both oils are 40 weight in the heat why would people say 0w-40 is bad for summers? shouldn't they provide the same protection in the heat?
