Amen . . . check out "540 rat" site on oil testing, his conclusion is 5W-30 is in general the best for wear protection, HP and cold starting, but extols the benefits of thinner viscosity for lubricating (cold starts) and cooling.You think engineers write the manual? HA!
0W-20 Is pushed hard in the US only for MPG reasons. You know what's different form the 2000 Accord and 2001? Nothing. But ones manual says 30, the others 20.
You run 20 if you want fractions of a % better MPG. You run 30 if you want better engine protection.
