Well, I know you're certainly not the first member here that went back to 5w30 after trying 5w20, stating that more noise was noticed with a 5w20 fill.

I'll be changing the oil in 2 weeks and I'll let you know if there is any audible difference. I am guessing that there will be zero.

I'll just go by what you and other members say. Some notice a difference, some say no change. I myself don't know about the NZ because I've always stuck with the 5w30 so far.
