Oil viscosity

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray Dzurney on  Wed Mar 21 06:13 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Greetings All,

Don't know if this subject has been discussed yet but according to my owners manual, the recommended oil viscosity over 86deg F is 10W30 and below is 5W30. The car came with 5W30 in the case. Is the owners manual impling that the oil should changed to the heavier viscosity in the summer and then back to the lighter stuff in the winter? The dealer couldn't give me a straight answer.

Regards,

Ray.
