When you buy a motor vehicle, motor oil is the second most important fluid for the vehicle after fuel. Choosing the right grade of oil is crucial. Unless you know how 0w40 or 10w40 impacts the performance, you can’t do that. So, what is 0w40 vs 10w40? Both of these are multigrade motor oils. The main difference between them is in their viscosity at low temperatures. 0w40 is more suitable in cold-temperature areas because it is less viscous at low temperatures. At high temperatures, both oils have similar viscosity. Learn all the similarities and differences between these two motor oils…

We often confuse motor oil grades and use the wrong oil, which impacts the engine’s performance and durability. To choose the right oil, you need to understand different oil grades and how they perform in different conditions. Take 0w40 vs 5w30, for example. Both 0w40 and 5w30 are synthetic multigrade oils. 0w40 has a lower viscosity at low temperatures and a higher viscosity at high temperatures. This makes 0w40 a more all-round engine oil. But 5w30 is more suitable for warmer temperatures. You will learn their similarities and differences in detail. Besides, you can also determine which oil to use…
