5w-20 motor oil : who's using it ? ...

[TheSilkySmooth]

Just as an example BMW M engines have been failing running our API SL, SM 10W-30. Also Chevrolet (corvette) pulled its mobil1 recommendaion and factory fill last year due to the oil NOT staying in viscosity grade throughout the OC service interval.

NO oil stays in viscosity during it's life.

ALL oils will eventually shear down in viscosity, and often this shearing is not much because oxidation of that oil can actually thicken the oil.

Spends some time at bobistheoilguy.com and learn how oil works...otherwise your opinions are based on nothing scientific.

Who do you think you are talking to? You have logical argument? You make me laugh so hard I bust my kidney, little boy - getting too big for your pants, little boy.
You have a speck of knowledge but not enough to be anywhere near expert in field of tribology. BITOG are rank amatures and full of misinformation. If you think this is good site you have been fooled. Spend seven years at University maybe you have some more knowledge.

I had no idea spending seven years at a University grants one professional oil knowledge... I knew I should've stayed there two more years!

Little Girl, not once have you rebuttaled my posts with counter arguments.

Instead, you do what all people do who are ignorant, and who hate to admit stupidity, failure, and that's to character-assasinate the other person.

So go outside and drive the car your daddy or BF gave you, little girl...this site is for grownups.

Hey, SilverGlob. You are a whole lot smarter than me and perhaps the smartest member this forum has ever seen. Since you used the word you are the most qualified person I know to ask these questions. What is the meaning of the word rebuttaled?? What year did the Webster's dictionary add ed to the word rebuttal? I have heard of rebut, rebutted, rebuttal, rebutting, rebuttable, and rebutter but not rebuttaled. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Silverglow is a troll and should be ignored like most ignoramuses causing trouble and being of no benefit to the forum.

I think his advice on oil is bad. He throws "UOA" around a lot, maybe thinking it'll impress, but goes on to hand out advice about which oil to use, claiming that if 5w-20 is approved for use in our 1.5L, then "UOAs" will show that 0w-20 will work even better in our cars. Most people probably know better than to use a viscosity that isn't listed in the owner's manual or in the latest TSB, but SilverGlow doesn't seem to understand it yet.

Rebutter

How about: rebutterable, rebuttering, or rebuttabler.
