Yeah I know what ur saying.... I only do about 6k a year anyway....I don't think it's a good idea to leave it alone for the winter either...I'd prefer to keep it running tbh. Temps here are between roughly 0- 10 from about now to at least March....then gradually creeps up to 20-25. I just was thinking the 0w40 would be better suited to start using now as the temps dropped.. Then change it back to the 5W40 about April/May time. Tbh I could probably just use the 0W40 all year round, as I probably could get away with it with my climate. Was just wondering if people actually did change due to the season. Maybe mine isn't as drastic as say Canada, where it's scorching in summer and extremely cold in winter. I just like the idea of a 0W weight for my temps just now. I change the oil twice a year anyway regardless of mileage.
