Engine OIls IN wINTER

Its no secret that cold temperatures turn engine oil into molasses, especially heavy oils like 15W-40. Therefore, switching to a lighter oil in your engine points towards easier starts for your vehicle in the winter.  

​Some vehicles come with a viscosity chart in the owner’s manual, this chart explains and suggest which oil should be used in your car for certain temperatures. Generally, a vehicle that uses 10W-30 regularly should switch to a lighter oil like 5W-30 in the wintertime. This protects your engine from winter wear and tear and helps your engine start easier.
