IMPORTANT UPDATE:
================
Scott: I had those viscosities re-run today and all came back a little higher.
The 0W/20 was 9.24 cSt.
The 0W/30 was 11.55 cSt.
The 0W/40 was 12.80 cSt.
Those are a little bit more of a difference that I'd normally like and I would have them run again to see how the third try reads, but we ran out of oil. If you want to send in more, I'd be glad to run them all again at no charge. Usually the viscosity test should be +/- 5%. We were within that for the 0W/40, but higher for the other two.
Sincerely,

I think I'm going to take Ryan up on his offer and send him some more oil.
Also, how do we best fix this thread? I doubt all people will read the whole thread so that they realize the original cSt were in error. After getting the full retest, do I start a new thread titled "RETEST: Castrol Edge Syntec 0W-20, 0W-30 BC, 0W-40 GC"?
