My car is a 4yo turbodiesel with 105k km on it, and I have 5W40, which is the suggested oil (I wrote about 10W40 for easier arithmetic). I've been thinking 5W30 or 0W40, I'm not sure which move is better? Maybe straight to 0W30? Or maybe the half&half approach, so if there is anything to loosen, it'll happen gradually?
