Amazon engine oil vs the world - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Karl · 03-15-2019

If anyone on here has a GM pickup truck or newer BMW or Mercedes I understand the cars must use 0w20 or 5w20.

Anything above a 20 weight oil will cause the GM cylinder deactivation and cruising speed on the highway to not work/malfunction or operate inefficiently..

And on the BMW and Mercedes general running trouble with the engine.

Maybe GM and Lotus suggest staying with a 5w30 or 10w30 for a reason.

Food for thought.
